Guys, can you please suggest some good soldering/desoldering kit?
Ideally in UK or in Europe.
I'm planning to resolder VArmilo VA69M (gonna use Tealios).

63/37 Leaded solder 0.6mm width with RMA core
Adjustable temperature on a soldering iron, preferable with different tips to suit your needs.
A good quality solder sucker (don't skimp out).
With wave soldered boards I usually go over all the legs and retin them with 63/37 so it makes it easier to remove all the solder with the pump.

Don't go for tiny soldering iron tips. E.g. for a 1 mm wide SMD part it is still good to have about Ø 2 mm bevel or chisel tip. A bigger tip is good to transfer heat quickly to the part.

Extra flux can be helpful on occasions. For Cleaning(flux residue, as well as some forms of corrosion)' I use robbing alcohol on cotton buds and a heat gun set on low.
A good pair of flush wire cutter is next to a must. Needle nose tweezers, and magnification depending on the density..
