This is highly dependent on the solder paste formulation. We have a few brands that can withstand 24 hours between printing and placement of components. Some grades only leave a 6 hour window. Our typical minimum specification for any new development is 8 to 24 hours for no clean paste, 8 hours for water soluble paste.

Dear Click and Clack,
errr...I forget your names on the show!
Nice tribute to Car Talk, my favorite Saturday Morning radio show! Of course its my only Saturday morning show...
Anyway my question is I'm not clear what you do at 1" upside down. Do you tap it on the surface below, or just invert it? What is 90 degrees? And is the implicit assumption is that if parts fall off the paste is too dry to reflow?
Hope you guys are doing well in this challenging economy!
