what flux do you prefer?

[Fallout]

What flux do people prefer? Also when using new copper do you still wire wool the pipe before
fluxing?

 

[muggles]

Everflux, and generally not unless it's the bit that's had tape round it

 

[Madrab]

I like Powerflow or Everflow, as muggles but both do the job just as well IMO, it depends on which factors I'm in, when I need to get it .... you'll get a hundred answers to that tho I reckon, it's each to their own when it comes to flux and solder.

Self cleaning, water soluble, WRAS approved if working on water are the key points.

More corrosive? Is flux ok.stored in the van ie not effected by cold temps etc?

 

[Dan Robinson]

You certainly need to flush Powerflow out of a gas pipe.

I've had Laco in my van for years and its never been affected by the cold.
