Is it possible to make this stuff, what exactly is it made of?
I tried to buy some stay-silv black flux but it must have a hazardous material classification because no one will ship the stuff. But I tried googling what exactly it contains and came up empty (trade secret?).
I see guys in China selling the stuff and it looks like they mixed it themselves.
I want to braze some carbide but the only flux available to me is borax (doesn't work), and white brazing paste (works, not sure of strength). I even tried borax just joining 2 pieces of steel, doesn't work either.
