I'm about to start bread boarding a desin.  I have a few surface mount chips that I got SMT-to-DIP adapters for.  I also purchased SMT paste.  I have never worked with surface mount devices.  How do you paste the chip to its footprint?  How do you get the excess, if any, paste out?  I have a feeling it's got something to do with heating it.

Thanks,

I use wire solder, water soluble flux and a fine tip soldering iron. A list of the tools
and supplies I use are at  http://tinyurl.com/6b2vy9
