The Mainly Trains website has a link

If you download the "General Lists (G9)" there is more detail on which flux is which.
Basically it says Red Label for whitemetal, and for brass I often use Green label, although again Red Label would be suitable.
Having said that, I use Fry's PowerFlow or Green label for everything, including whitemetal. Soldering whitemetal to brass needs a different technique though...
