    Tom, The thinner to reconstitute your paste solder ( at least all
    the ones I have used ) is mineral oil. It is available at most drug
    stores. It will bring new life to your old dried up paste solder.
    You definitely don't want to add water to it. I know adding oil to a
    solder is against all the logic we were taught about keeping solder
    clean etc. but as far as I know, that's what they use when they make
    paste solder. The amount of oil you add will determine how thick or
    thin the paste is. This is something you may want to play with, and
    find out if one sort of consistency is right for your application.
    Happy soldering. Don Friedlich
