Kenny, Yes, I am glad he replied, but it was too close to an "ad" for my liking, Friday or not. The only person I turn a blind eye to is Werner who is one of our old, famous farts. That is said with proper love and respect, Werner.

Actually I'm glad that he replied, that's some information I've been looking for too. Anything I can add to my kit-bag helps me out.

You know, the original SM goes away when wicking the pads after BGA removal and we need to cover the vias back. And I'm talking lead-free. Thank you, Ioan Tempea, ing.
