[QUOTE="SEGARE, post: 2650073, member: 108067"] That looks like Smiths Little Torch. It's been the standard for bench work for many years. I would go to a welding supply store and ask for the lowest temp soldering rod, or buy from an online jeweler supply. I would not want solder with flux on the rod. Buy your flux separately and use it generously. Clean the part very well. You can use a pencil to mark where want to solder to stop flowing. If you plan to refinish the part, then you can preheat with the torch. If you're trying to preserve the existing finish, I would put the part in you oven set at the highest temp. This will help the soldering to flow. [/QUOTE]
