In short I ended up with a box of Kolophonium, as I read its not aggressive to metal as other solder-aids. But how is this used? Do I have to heat it up and then put it into the spot I need it?
What you are describing sounds more like Tip tinner, It's a rock hard compound used to strip the excess solder off the tip of the iron by pressing the hot tip into it.Dont try using this to stick wires with, you will only end up frying the board.
