[QUOTE="CBFryman2, post: 2320397, member: 565445"] In the capacitors....duh duh duh dun! But seriosuly, flux is a weak acid that cleans copper oxides off of the surface so you get good adheasion and cotnact. Rosin core has head activated flux (the yellow shit that runs out when you melt the rosin solder) so you dont have to use flux. Plumbers brush on flux right before they solder, you'd do the same when soldering large guage wire with a butane tourch. Brush it on, let it sit for a second or two, then heat up the wire and apply solder to the other side. a note when soldering, the metal you are trying to solder should melt the solder...not the flame or iron you are using to heat the metal.
