How do you apply your flux?

ok ive never had a leak before lol, i can turn water in wine, float like a butterfly and sting like a bee, take it easy and wind your neck in, if you dont like wire wool because you damaged a bath before thats ok, but im sure im not the only old school plumber that still uses it.

Never had a leak before ? You must be bursting or you are not a proper plumber

I say live and let live. I use emery cloth now, before that I used those expensive abrasive strips (the square mesh ones) and before that, many moons back, I used wire wool. With no problems. Just like thousands of other plumbers did or do.

I personally want to think that I'll never be too set in my ways to listen to advise....but I personally think live and let live.

To all, it's advice, unless it's to advise

Whoops!

I use steel wool from time to time and much prefer it to strips or sandpaper or fittings brushes or whatever. Everybody to there own thing. Much like 170 posts on how to flux a pipe. It is irrelevant.
