Help On Xenium Spice Installation

the gold wires should just seat inside the holes. the holes may be covered with lacquer so clean them up first with a fibre glass prep pen and some surgical spirit

Use a fibreglass pen to gently scrub the via. With the right tools it shouldnt be hard.

A pin really isnt the right tool, not sure if it will work. A fibreglass pen is static free and there is less of a chance that you could screw things up.

i use a pin to break the lacquer, just be careful not to open the hole up otherwise the wire will be too loose then
