The day I found out I was using flux wrong for 3 years

Was reflowing a laptop GPU when my buddy asked why I was globbing on so much flux, then showed me a video of a repair guy using just a tiny drop. Now I'm wondering how many other basic things I've been doing backwards without realizing it.

Learned the hard way I was drowning my boards in it too.

@sean119 right there with you man, thought more flux = magic smoke shield. Turns out I was basically giving my boards a chemical bath every time. Least we can laugh about it now while scraping dried flux off our benches.
