Don't think so.
Check "Roto metals" They have auto body lead with 10-20-30% tin content.
So they should have anything you need.

McMaster Carr has the correct lead for auto body as well.

I get solders from both Johnson's and from Roto Metals.
(... never thought of going to McMaster )

Now that John's question has been answered. I have one.


Where do you get "Tins It"? I had a orange can of it and put it in a plastic container several years ago after the bottom of the can rotted away. I finished it off a few years ago. I've looked on line but can only find tinning butter from Eastwood. Does it compare?
