My friend, a 35year studio tech mentioned a trick for removing
excess solder.  He takes some of the woven shielding 'matting'
from a shielded cable and uses that to 'wick' up the melted
solder.  One method among several.

I use 0000 steel wool to “wick” away the molten solder, just keep the wool out of the flame.
