Have you ever tried ChipQuik? I haven't; I'm just curious about the experiences of those who have, and to suggest looking at it if you've never heard of it.


Thanks! Yes I have tried it and is what I would probably use. It's not ideal and sometimes end up losing some of the unused pads- even with the lower heat involved which I hate (from a cosmetic point of view). Overall it's not a bad solution if not a little messy and expensive. There's also the task of aligning and resoldering with a fine tip iron that followings, which with 100 pins with .5mm pitch is no fun.
