I wish I could take credit for it. I'm just the guy that designs the stuff. We are really fortunate to have an extremely talented and driven group of welders. These guys are constantly trying to improve themselves at their craft and challenge themselves.

I agree. I see where Solar Flux may be a benefit; where back-purging isn't practical. It just doesn't provide as consistent and clean a weld as good technique with back-purging.

Due to the flakey nature I'd never use it on a pre-turbo exhaust part I couldn't get eyes on to clean/grind as that's just asking for trouble.
