An apparatus and process prepares surfaces on components, boards and the like for assembly and solder joining. Oxides and other coatings can be removed from surfaces to be soldered without having to solder coat surfaces prior to joining. A polymer and an activator combination is applied to the surfaces, the polymer being thermally de-polymerizable and the combination removing oxides from the surfaces. The surfaces are heated after application of the polymer and activator to de-polymerize the polymer. Solder is then applied to solder join the surfaces.
