I need a small amount (about a cubic inch, I would guess) of this for a
solder pot. Does anyone know where I would get this (in the uk, I suppose)

It doesn't matter to me whether it's lead based or not as it's only being
used for tinning wires.

Apparently normal fluxed solder isn't suitable.


Any plumbers merchant. Plumbers use a separate acidic(?) flux - something
to do with the need to ensure drinking water pipes are not contaminated.


If this really suitable it would be good, basically I'm tinning lintz wire.
