I found an excellent video on youtube that showed really good techniques on how to solder small surface mount components by applying solder to one side of the pads first then with solder on the tip you simply touch the soldering iron to the junction of each pad and component. Friday this was working great. We had and have the soldering iron at 343C (suggested 650F). The tip was staying shiney and silver. Today the solder is turning a dull grey and seems to be oxidizing. Any suggestions? Oh and we're using a flux pen.
