What is the usual technique with the braid? I have some of it but have never had great luck, even on single sided boards. In my case, once a tiny bit of solder wicks onto the braid, no more seems to transfer. I end up having to snip off bits of braid several times for a single DIP pin! I have tried heating the component lead and then applying the braid, and I think I have also tried heating the braid. Any ideas?
