## Description

Removing SMD parts more complex than a resistor or SOT-23 can be a real bear. You want to get the part off without damaging traces, and if possible, without damaging the part either. [You could haul out your hot air tool](https://core-electronics.com.au/hot-air-soldering-rework-station-w-three-nozzles-quick-957d.html) *or* you could go in surgically with this handy **SMD Removal Kit from Chipquik** - SMD removal is made easy! It uses a special metal alloy that bonds to your solder but stays liquid for a long time so can melt it over the existing pads and then remove with tweezers. This version has a leaded alloy, best for use with lead-based solder.

In just four steps you're rocking and rolling:

1. Apply flux \[[Adafruit used the Chipquick Tack Flux 10cc Syringe](https://core-electronics.com.au/chip-quik-tack-flux-10cc-syringe-with-plunger-and-tip-smd291.html)\] to all leads of SMD
2. Solder alloy uniformly on all pins of SMD
3. Lift SMD or slide SMD from board
4. Clean site with swab dipped in flux, [solder wick](https://core-electronics.com.au/solder-wick-3s-5ft.html), alcohol pad.
5. \*\*TA-DA\*\*

**Kit Includes:**

- 2.5 feet of Removal Alloy
- 1x tube of No-Clean Paste Flux
- 5x Alcohol wipes
- Instruction sheet
