What to do when the tip is blackened and not ‘wettable’
Using a clean sponge, repeat the process of ’tinning’ and ‘cleaning’ the tip several times. The
tip surface of an iron that has been in use a short time, generally has a higher ‘wettability’
recovery level.
If this does not remove the discoloration, use a fine grit sandpaper (eg., #600 grit) to remove
any black solid particles and try to ‘tin’ it with solder once more.
Washing and replacement of the cleaning sponge
If the cleaning sponge appears black or brown, rinse out the stains in water. If rinsing does not
remove the stains, replace the sponge.
