no no no..... solder paste doesn't work like that. It just helps to clean the point you are soldering to while you apply the iron and solder. It helps to make a good clean bond with the wire the solder and the point being soldered to. Its also known as flux. Most solder has flux or rosin in its core but as anyone that has done an install before knows your not really applying the solder to the point your soldering at the same time your heating the point with your iron, you just put a little bit of solder on the tip of the iron thus the rosin core solder doesn't work the way it would under normal soldering conditions. This is why solder paste/liquid flux is helpful.
