Most of us have come up against this problem. Corroded copper just won't work. However, it always seemed wrong to abrade the finish to prep it for soldering. Is there a solution that can be used to s

Ammonia is an excellent cleaner of copper. However, I've read that it can cause "hydrogen embrittlement" (Spell checker doesn't know that word, and I can't find it in the dictionary) and should not

The plasticiser also leaches out under normal atmospheric conditions esp. sunlight and is probably the main cause of the film that develops on the inside of the glass. PaulH.

What I do on corroded wires is scrape them with the edge of a knife blade to remove the corrosion. Tinning is another matter. Small wires can be easily twisted together after tinning, larger guages b

One last thing about soldering corroded wires. Some folks like to use acid core solder because it sticks better. Bad idea in the long run. This is because the acidic residues will keep eating on the

yep. a ' welded' connection of course would be best. A crimp is a close as you can get. After crimping... solder it. :-) Paul Tegler ptegler@cablespeed.com www.teglerizer.com -- Original Message -- F
