Gidday all, What you are trying to solder is most likely stainless steel and the only flux worth its salt is phosphoric acid. You will be amazed how well it works on stainless or any other material for that matter. A smidgeon on the end of a balsa stick is all that is needed and resin cored solder is OK followed by a damp cloth cleanup. Regards, John Ensoll

I have sanded and fluxed them and all the solder does is bead up. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Jerry RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
