Make Your Own Flux | Get Better Solder Joints

In this video tutorial, I’ll show you how to make a simple yet effective soldering flux with just two ingredients: rosin and isopropanol. This DIY flux removes fine impurities and oxide layers from the surface, improving solder adhesion. In other words, it helps the solder flow better. A handy tool for achieving cleaner solder joints when working with SMD components or thin solder wires with minimal flux core. This DIY flux works equally well with both leaded and lead-free solder. It’s inexpensive and has an almost unlimited shelf life. Typical Mixing Ratios: medium-strength flux: 60 parts rosin to 40 parts isopropanol thin consistency (e.g., for refilling flux pens): 10 to 90 parts high viscosity (for longer soldering sessions): 80 to 20 parts Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:46 Rosin 01:12 Isopropyl Alcohol 01:38 Mixing Ratio 01:58 Glycerin 02:11 Acetylsalicylic Acid 02:33 Making the Flux 02:58 Soldering Examples 03:15 Removing Flux Residue
