[R-390] zinc chloride NO NO

Several years ago I bought a bottle of liquid flux used on PC boards from an
electroincs store.  I make my own solder wick using the shielding from coax or
audio cables, then dip it into the flux.  I have some small size military coax
that uses silver plated wire,  MAN, does that work great as solder wick.
BTW it seems to me that (again) years ago I saw the tip on making solder wick in
one of the ham mags, then shortly there after it appeared on the market.
