Abstract

A method is available for forming a solder film on a metallic surface such as a pad of a metallic circuit of a printed circuit board and a lead frame of electronic parts which is capable of forming a precise and fine pattern. The method comprises selectively imparting tackiness to only a predetermined part of the metallic surface by use of a tacky layer-forming solution, adhering a powdered solder to the resulting tacky part, and then melting the solder by heating to thereby form a solder film.
