Close corner solder

rockycmt said:

I have a few very tight space solder jobs to do. I have to protect 2 things:
1- drwyall
2-an electrical wire.
What are some good materials to use to do this. I have done the foil thing in the past but that last like 5 seonds before you are through it.

A lot easier to do when you have a 5 foot torch hose rather than a turbo torch attahced to a can of mapp or propane.

Cool Gel is good stuff!
I bought it or a similar product the first time about 6 or 7 years ago and have been using it ever since.
At one of the Manufacturer Demo Days at the local supply house a rep was showing it off and I was invited to hold a torch to a coated C-Note...
It did not burn and everybody that saw that bought some. A very impressive demonstration if you ask me...

Another good product is a flame protector cloth. These are non-asbestos usually ceramic fiber cloth... Thanks NASA!

In this day and age there is no excuse for BBQ'ing a house...
