I use the solder blob approach and one trick I found is that taking a couple 
of swipes with a piece of fine grit sandpaper pinched around the wire really 
helps with making the solder blob approach go much faster.

Like others mentioned: high heat and continuous feed of rosin core solder is 
necessary.

A final pass with a clean iron and fresh solder makes for a nice clean shiny 
coat.

I also hold the core on a piece of dowel or a chopstick to avoid burning my 
fingers.
