Is the use of a soldering gun on printed circuit boards recommended?

In general no because its easy to overheat the board and lift pads or even entire traces.
However where the board has large areas of copper soldered to metal chassis lugs, if you need to unsolder such connections the only tool likely to be able to apply enough heat is a soldering gun.

What can be used to clean circuit boards when you are finished soldering?
Defluxer spray, compressed air, or water.
Where are printed circuit boards used?
Flexible printed circuits are used so that boards can be conformed to a particular shape. They are often used in computer keyboards, cameras, calculators, and cellular phones.

How do you implement logic gates using ICs without breadboard?
logic gates can be executed without breadboards using printed circuit boards instead of breadboards or by using bulbs and switches in 230 v ac current.Former need soldering and is permanent one while latter is a tiresome method.......use pcb it will be easy ....:::))))
What do you mean by wave flow soldering?
Wave flow soldering is a method of soldering all the connections on a printed circuit board in a single step on a machine (instead of one at a time by hand).A wave flow soldering machine has the following parts:a heated tank containing molten solder covered with a thin layer of fluxone or more printed circuit board fixturesa mechanical wave generatorPrinted circuit boards are populated with components (on automatic part placement machines and/or manually by human assemblers). The populated printed circuit boards are placed in the fixtures. As each fixture goes into the wave flow soldering machine the wave generator sends a wave of solder down the length of the heated tank. The top of this wave just touches the bottom of the printed circuit board, soldering all the connections. After the fixtures leave the wave flow soldering machine they are allowed to cool a while and the printed circuit boards are removed.The soldered printed circuit boards are then washed to remove any flux residue left by the wave soldering machine, then sent to be tested to make sure they function as intended.Wave flow soldering works best for "through hole mounted" components.
What tools are needed to solder circuit boards?
Soldering iron, solder, flux
What kind of job is a PCB job?
A PCB job is one that is involved in the light manufacturing of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB's). This tends to involve soldering and light assembly of electronic goods.
