can you solder copper wire with aluminum solder? does it conduct as well as copper? I am repairing a connection on an angle grinder that keeps shorting out.
You don't want to put solder on the iron and then scrape it off. If may look the same here, but for PCB joints, it will not make a good joint. You have to put solder directly on the joint.
I was gunna say: YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG

...What's the problem with putting the solder on the wire directly again? The result looked the same to me.
