I use this
<http://www.boilpass.com/lukey-702-digital-hot-air-rework-station-solder_p4611.html>rework
station (it doesn't advertising).
I can work with almost all components (except BGA and so on), but feel
smell of burned FR-4 :)
Best regards,
Andrey Sviyazov.

Just another data point... I used PbFree solder paste
on the GAPfiller
boards, but did all of the fixes using leaded solder. It wasn't ideal,
but it was much easier than trying to use PbFree solder for modifications.

so.
Do you know low fusible lead free solder paste ?
No unfortnately all the lead free board I worked with sucked from that
PoV :(
When you have to rework anything connected to a ground plane, it's
hell to avoid burning the FR4, lifting traces, ...
Cheers,
Sylvain
