Don't make it that thick... will become hard to apply.
Actually we need a very fine coating, not a lump paint which will
cause some other issues after evaporating...
Using medical grade white spirit with rosin is recommended.
95 liquid:5rosin ratio is more then enough.
After this you can try PPD paste on pads, PPD paste contains : 63sn/37pb
Do some baking or hot blowing & see the difference. :)
