I have found that milk of magnesia, from the drugstore, works well to stop
spelter from flowing where you don't want it. Does take a bit of scraping
to clean up, but nothing like filing brass in tight corners. For that I
use a high speed rotary tool with a small carbide or diamond bit.
The milk of magnesia idea came from one of the blacksmith newsletters, or
possibly from this list. I frequently forget where these good ideas come
from.
