I'll second the ChipQuik, other than having a Hot air rework system it is the best method for removing smd components.

Cheers,

Many Many thanks guys! This is great. I just ordered the chipquik kit to try out. I have murdered too many circuits/boards, and I want to 'change my ways'. The soldering station was a big help, and now this. I don't work with ic's because i love 'em. It's just a fact of life with some circuits, and therefor unavoidable. I much prefer point to point, and that is the way that my amp is. ok, I'll quit now before I ramble.

Well, I have used ChipQuik on 20+ ic removals, and have ordered more. The flux has helped with other circuit desoldering, and whatever the price, it is worth it! Can't thank you enough grifti, as desoldering was getting to be a concern. I am using solder wick with the product and put some flux on it too. The solder wicks like water to a sponge! Amazing.
