Solar Flux is a complex chemical compound in the form of a very fine powder - finer than talcum powder. SOLAR FLUX, when properly mixed with alcohol (methanol - methyl alcohol preferred for best results) and brushed on the back of the weld joint, is formulated to shield the BACK of the weld joint from oxygen, dissipate heat and unwanted oxides, clean the surface of the metal so as to aid in the flow of filler metal over base metal, and to form a protective barrier to prevent re-oxidation and heat scale.
