Hello
I keep having the same problem when soldering, when I first plug in the iron I clean and tin the tip but I still find that when diong the first connections using the iron after its just been pluged in the solder doesn't flow very well and tends to produce cold joints of a gray colour rather than nice shiny ones.
Its only after a few uses it gets better and flow of solder is better, why does this happen. The iron is and RS 25w iron. Any advice would be appriciated
Thanks you for reading.
