- First clean the area to be filled back to bare metal with a stripping disc, sanding paper etc.
- Brush solder paint over an area slightly larger than that to be filled & heat the area gently until you see the solder paint tin the panel.
- Remove excess solder paint with a clean cloth.
- Next, melt blobs of lead onto the panel over the area to be filled.
- Prepare your paddles by warming the surface of the tallow & wiping your paddle in the molten puddle. With a suitable amount of lead now deposited on the panel, heat it carefully until it can be spread like butter with your paddle.
- Control heat carefully & keep spreading until body solder is evenly spread over area.
- Wash with cool water to quench & to remove traces of acid solder paint. Approx 0.5kg per stick. Also available pack of 10.
