Rob,
There is a BIG difference! The No Clean Flux is primarily for SMT work,
or as someone else said, it is for the new ROHS Solder.
You definitely want the Solder Paste.
It is also available at Lowe's and Home Depot.
Sometimes you have to go look in the Plumbing Department.
Lowe's also DOES have it in the tool department along with the propane
torch kits.
