New to flux, do you have to use same brand of solder wire with same brand of flux? For example I’m looking at Fernox lead free 500g solder wire / Powerflow fry - says use with same branded Fernox Fry Powerflow flux. Why I ask the question, as was thinking of La Co paste instead! (Cheaper and...

So had heatable install boiler, went perfectly, took his time, did a MagnaCleanse, system was pretty damn clean so no need for power flush. I saved money Vs local quoting nearly 4k got heatable at 3.5k + 0% over 3 years! He even sorted some bits of pipework alteration in the process / ensuite I...

Thank you, I appreciate it!!

I will get this added to the list!

Isn’t one of the main advantages of guns controlling amount and consistency of the gun foam? Can you do this with a genius device?
