Not to get into a soldering skills contest, but I'd rather use hot tweezers - hot air is the only viable option for components like QFNs and BGAs, but using it always carries the risk of accidentally disturbing neighbouring components, particularly if you're inexperienced. Affordable hot tweezers such as the Sequre HT140 are now readily available from China and make removing small SMD components almost effortless.
