Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Solder pot tinning and etch resist

So, I could just dip the board in a solder pot, and then wipe it with a damp
rag (or blow it off with hot air). For that matter, the solder pot can be an
old pan.

I think so. The board should be hot first. It's best that it does not contact the pan, so verticle tanks are best,

You need three things:
1) A clean surface
2) Flux
3) Solder

Preheated flux should work really well + a dip in solder + a wipe + a re-flow
