Should I use solder paste or paste flux when using StencilQuik™ stencils?
We recommend that you use solder paste when using StencilQuik™ stencils. This will more closely reproduce the original processing of the device and provide similar reliability. Using solder paste is just as easy as using paste flux with StencilQuik™ stencils and will improve the yield of the rework process.
