solder preferences

[J.G. Wong]

I have been using Multicore no - clean and it it is a struggle getiing
it to flow in the direction of the board despite gravity.

As much as I don't like rosin core solder, it flows easily and can be
used for all connections and I go twice as fast.

Is there something I am missing in working the new stuff ? I use a
decent station with a pointed tip and normally 530-570 Farenheit.
