Where can I buy some small wire ( about # 28 to 30 ) that has the
enamel type of insulation that can be soldered and the heat will melt
the insulation ? There was some on ebay I bought that did not seem
to work. After checking it out, it seems that it needs to be heated
to almost 400 deg C and when I tried that, it did not do all that
well.
Wire such as Essex Soderon is solderable, as you want. The insulation melts
at approx. 237°C, well below 400°C.
Amazon, for one, has it at

Funny story...
25 years ago, I contracted some LCD monitors from Japan as part of
a product offering. They had been modded using that type of wire.
The QC manager took one look and insisted that they all be rejected.
YMMV
