Solder Paste: I'm also interested in learning about what type of solder paste to use and not starting a new thread on this topic. Can members suggest a list of desirable paste compositions as well as brands/part numbers?

It looks like this is pretty middle of the road stuff: http://sra-solder.com/product.php?xProd=6063
WC-360-830 SOLDER PASTE
Tin/Lead: 60/40
Flux: Intermediate
Characteristics: Restrictive - What does this mean?

As for flux: I've had good luck with a Chemtronics CW8100 No Clean Flux Dispensing Pen. That's a quality company and it's worked well over aged applications for me.

It turns out that the stuff I quoted, above, is not electronics grade paste. SRA told me that for electronics they sell and recommend Chip Quik.
