Brazing flux that is.... The stuff that dries out and you need to add water to and make a paste out of. Seems lately I cannot get braze to stick to anything, it just beads up and rolls around.

I have the same problem
--Maybe that water wasn't water? I'm wondering if a build-up of calcium deposits in subsequent additions of water or something like that might make a difference..
I don't know for sure, but I have seen some OLD stuff, and I'd say some chemical changes had taken place. For as cheap as it is, go get some new.

That's kinda what I was thinking. I'll pick some up next trip to the weld store and see if my brazing luck improves.
We are talking 20+ years old.

Let me put it to you this way................. If you got some twenty years plus old stuff, and it's still good, please post the name.
I WANT SOME!
