How can I remove stuck pin?

Pin is mushroom at the top, meaning no grip, but at the bottom it has grip. I used a desoldering gun and wick still didn’t work, so I got a hot air station. Still doesn’t work. Temperature I used was 300-400°C for 15 seconds or more, but it depends. Solder is lead-free.

@dan0, for equipment, I have an atten heating station, a Hako desoldering gun, and a soldering iron Hako 8888DX.

Thanks! Do you have a hot air station? Would try that and then try with tweezers to get it out. Make sure you use flux first. It should come out.

I would add flux and then solder, heat, and try to pull with tweezers. Might need to increase the heat as well. Hope this helps.

I tried using that method to increase the temperature, but nothing happened. Is there a way I can demonstrate it to you on FaceTime?
