Soldering Question

[Weekend Handyman]

Hello:

So, I am now knee deep in bathroom reno.

I was soldering up a female adapter and noticed that it looks like some of the tinning flux pushed its way into the fitting and got on the threads.

Is this fine to use?

Looks ok to me , Id run a nipple in and out a few times with dope on it probebly a black or gal nipple to sort of chase threads out a bit

Well … decided to re-do it for $4.50. Did it in a vertical position (like I should have last time) … not the prettiest joint in the world but should work.
