What's a good way to keep solder from flowing or wetting copper or brass

I have used regular "white out" correction fluid for this lots of times.
works great. The water based stuff is makes less obnoxious fumes but
seems to be hard to find in the store sometimes. The solvent based stuff
works just as well, but I use with good ventilation so I don't inhale
the fumes when I heat it.
