That will fuck your stuff up. I'm not sure why they even make that. It's made for sweating copper tubing using a torch. I wonder if the extra heat from the torch does something to neutralize the acid because a properly sweated connection lasts forever. EDIT: I guess this is why you are supposed to wipe the connection with a wet rag after the solder solidifies - to get rid of the remaining acid. I always thought that was done so as not to burn the shit out of someone who accidentally touched it. EDIT 2: I don't think the solder that I have for copper tubing has any core at all. You just flux the joint first. Edited by redk9258 (04/26/11 02:24 PM)
