The trick to keeping it clean is brass sponge, good quality soldering wire and a proper regulated temperature controlled soldering iron. Alot of the real cheap soldering iron suffer from this problem
The brass sponge is the most important, also applying separate soldering flux (not resin) might help out with many issues as it will suck the solder nicely onto the surface.
Another 8:46 Mins I'll never get back. So you have options. Choosing one takes less time than this video. Choir boy is my personal favorite. The standard collage setup, a wet paper towel and they now sell tip cleaner on Amazon.. so you have that. use the proper solder for the job. use flux and keep your tip clean the entire time your working. dip and clean between joints. Teach yourself to blow over your work while you work. don't inhale. Use exhaust fans. Hot iron is a good start. I let mine sit for at least 10 or 15 minutes before I attempt any work. - That's the 101 stuff I knew before I burnt my self with the iron for the first time. Good luck.
Wan't to know the real secret here? This is 9 mins 46 seconds that millions of people will never get back. What's not a secret is upon heating your soldering iron, tin the tip immediately at melting point. Use brass tip cleaner to wipe off oxidized junk, now with a clean, hot, tinned tip heat the joint you wish to solder. When it's hot, touch solder to joint. Once the welding is done, clean the tip of any contamination and tin the tip with solder. Wipe, repeat. When you're done, before your iron is cool, leave a blob of solder on the tip. Next time you heat up your iron, just wipe the blob before heating the first joint. Knowledge son.
I remember the story of the engineer visiting a factory in China and he watched a young woman doing a soldering job and he asked her what used for flux, she gave him a one word reply "Plix".
@@HelloKittyFanMan Sorry but that's just not true.

that was a plated tip. its best not to scrape or use abrasive, because when the plating wears through, it will become just an old fashioned copper bit and need constant filing. just clean the plated tip gently

Un decapante es un producto químico utilizado para eliminar óxido, pintura y otros recubrimientos de metal. Generalmente, se aplica antes de soldar, galvanizar o recubrir el metal para garantizar una unión fuerte. Algunos decapantes comunes incluyen ácido clorhídrico, ácido nítrico y ácido fosfórico.

Cheaper to buy a new tip then to destroy a power supply cable? or just scrape the tip.

Great finding mate. I can't explain it, but I get your point. Keep it up!👏👏👏
I would like to ask at 5:20, the positive pole should be connected to the soldering iron tip and the negative pole to the tin, right?
I lost confidence when he used lineman pliers for stripping wires.
Great idea to have high voltage next to a cup of water i can't imagine it being dangerous.
A brass wire brush cleans the tip without damaging its plating, then keep it tinned. No need for all this nonsense :-)
