My need involved repairing a good size (8 pound) art piece which had been broken in half at two places. The larger of the two pieces weighed about 5 pounds, and the soldering had to be done to the middle of a surface about six inches in diameter. The piece was not solid, but about a quarter inch thick. I just couldn't get it hot enough to melt the solder. Well the solder melted, but couldn't flow with a basic propane torch. Ultimately, I had to change to using MAP/Pro gas and a high intensity torch. I also changed to use the Bernz aluminum solder sticks. It took about four minutes to heat up the piece enough to melt the solder when the solder touched the piece. I did this at each break point about four minutes each place, then finally brought the "tinned" pieces together and just blasted the heat for about six minutes and got the parts to re-flow and bond. Based on what I learned, you shouldn't have any issues with smaller pieces, but a large work piece takes a bigger solution. I spent about eight bucks to try the product, and close to 70 more to get the solution for my problem.Read full review

Might be good for small electrical type jobs requiring aluminum solder, but that's it.. comes out very hard from the tube and as soon as the heat is applied it runs like a scared rabbit.. For the money it cost it is a lousy value... ps, I am a welder and have used many types of solders over the years.. this is junk.

I had some pitted places on a antique latherizer which was made of pot metal. I used this product and it worked well to fill in the pits. Just make sure you clean throughly or the paste won't adhere to the base metal.
