i have done it with a shitty iron and it's no fun and you will fuck it up the first few times (i did, i was forever lifting traces)
with a hot air station its very easy hold the hot air over it and just lift it off
i suggest you get a cheap clone 2in1 station (hot air and soldering iron) and you will wonder how you did any soldering before
soldering is now a pleasure, were as before it was a chore

ebay £3.44 unknown brand (£5.50 if i stick with known good brand, best)
priceangels £3.75 (best)
i'm not trusting an unknown Chinese solder reel to correctly tell me the lead content (or any other toxic crap i touch)
