I use the Hakko brass sponge tip cleaner. My brass sponge ball isn't badly clogged up, but is well used and not as good as it once was.
I am starting a fairly large project this weekend, went to the local dealer, and guess what?
They're out of them.
Anyone have any tips or suggestion on how or what to clean this with, or if it's even possible with meaningful results ?
I shook out all the remnants of solder and allowed the Sun to just melt a little flux into it, but still it just seems dirty and not up to snuff.
I am building a PS filter on a nice glass board and don't want to fight the iron.
Short of mail order and wait, any ideas?
Thanks
