I'm not sure if that is my issue.) The paste is not anywhere close to expired. Technique wise: I'm unsure of the orientation of the syringe in storage since I just received the AMTech paste (although it does recommend storage with the outlet down. I thought I would have better luck with T4. Usually I have better luck with the MG paste, some occasional bridging as long as the paste is not expired.

After reflow around 15% of the pins were bridged(fixed with solder wick rework).

After laying it down with a stencil the individual deposits of paste on 0.5mm pitch parts flowed and merged together. MG was like cake frosting with basically no flowing, AMTech was like Elmer's glue, flowing from gravity. The consistency was very thin compared to MG, my only reference. Hi, I've been using MG Chemicals leaded T3 solder paste with mixed success so I tried a batch of AMTech, T4 paste.
