| [* black] Once the tip has been rejuvenated, clean the hot iron tip on a brass ball and immediately feed some fresh solder onto the tip. | |
| + | [* black] Covering the iron tip in a layer of solder is called "tinning" the tip, and the tip should always be tinned. |
| [* black] [Pic one: Tip in brass ball. Pic two: tip clean and solder about to be fed. Pic three: tip tinned.] | |
| [* icon_note] If it's cleaned properly, solder should readily wet (flow onto) the tip. | |
| [* black] If the solder does not wet onto the tip, give it another few seconds swirling in the tip tinner. | |
| [* black] If the tip tinner isn't doing the job, it may be time for some more aggressive action. |
