Hi Lewis and Eddie, The hot air temperature mentioned in 7711/21 is recommended, you may adjust it if necessary. Many conditions affect the temperature, such as PCB thickness, thermal pad effective, multi-layers, component size… You may check out the temperature of component and solder joint and adjust the temperature, and then soldering/rework it as proper. Anyway, as low as well. B/R Leo Yang IPC Training Dept.

Hot air temp 425 C is too high for the some components repair. You should check whether the component can bear such high temp, or not.

Do you have the relative solutions?
