LOL !!!!!!!

For you to comment is utter foolishness IMHO. The process GK refers to is annnealing. Specific temperatures much be reached for the material treated and the case of steel be followed by quenching. Off the top, IIRC, some thing like 1500 F +. Steel would be heated red hot.

Now use your common sense. Soldering if you ever did some does not approach annealing temperatures. My temp controlled tips are 700 F rated. It is highly recommended by US Mil soldering manuals to use minimal heat and temperature.

Sheesh, bad enough to haveGK throw in unrelated issues then to have you stating an opinion without doing a minimum of research ( try googling annealing).

I should also point out repeated soldering and unsoldering involves a lot of flux, but I 'll recommend you research the role of flux and how it works (again try googling it).
