As the stuff is useful, probably not.  You might have to go to a proper shop, or possibly B&Q tools department.

Is this to do with soldering Jim Lanes stanchions? If it is'nt then ignore this. If it is, then from "the horses mouth" (Jim), he reckons with his newer stanchions you should'nt need to solder them at all. Little gaps can be easily fixed with a drop of superglue and subsequent painting will do the trick. I am doing this with "Havelock" and all is fine. BY.

Try Wickes soldering paste instead. It's not expensive,washes off easily with clean water and is very effective
