Solder-It SP-7 Silver Solder Paste 7.1 Grams | Soldering Flux Paste for Electronic Components, Home Improvement, and Wiring | Silver Solder for Jewelry Making and Repair | Lead-Free Solder Flux

Normally I don't leave reviews, but this product worked awesome. I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler and the rear defrost cable is attached to the back window by a small metal button. The button can become detached breaking the rear defrost. It can't just be glued back because the button is conductive. I tried a silver impregnated epoxy, but it has to be mixed a certain ratio or it won't stick and it has to be heated to a certain temperature for a certain time. It held for about a year and came off. I asked at different glass places, but they only replace the entire nine hundred dollar window, they don't just fix the button. Someone suggested Solder-It as it is a metal solder and has silver in it so is conductive. I cleaned the attachment point and button, put enough Solder-it to cover the back of the button, stuck it to the glass. Then took my small pencil torch, and while holding against the glass with the drill bit so I didn't burn my fingers and heated up the button to melt the solder. It took a matter of seconds and it was melted all the way around. I held it with the drill bit while the glass cooled. I'm happy to say it is stuck tight. I was also able to test it in last nights snow storm and the rear defrost worked like normal. Didn't have to futz with mixing or heating at a certain temp for a certain time. I'm all repaired for the cost of the Solder-it. Which beats a $900 rear glass replacement. Hopefully it will last. There was enough left over to do it again or if the other side comes off. Super happy with the purchase.

It actually works as stated. The soldered joint is super strong and is silver. I read all the other reviews where some complained about low quantity. The two that I purchased did not have that problem. After use it is a good practice to store the tip in an upright position.

This is an awesome product, I would recommend using a small butane torch for small welds. It is very strong and easy to work with.

I had to push it to the last half inch before anything came out. I used a few mini drops to fix some jump rings, and every time, I had to push out an air gap. I'll be lucky to get ten jump rings out of this.

I first want to say, I really like using this product. It’s a great way to solder and it’s rock solid without using traditional solder. CONS: the tube is about 4” long. You would expect the entire cylinder to be filled with the product. I’ve purchased 2 of these and both have very little product inside the tube. When opened, you have to compress the plunger almost all the way down, to get a small amount of solder/material to come out. I would expect to receive a full tube of product and the product to come out with a slight press of the plunger. With the small amount that is actually in the tube, the value of this product is fair at best. It’s much more economical to buy a spool of regular solder than to use this. If you have bigger soldering projects, you probably should pass on this product. Great idea, it works well but not enough to be helpful for any medium soldering needs.

We have used this solder before never had any problems with it. But this time is a different story. This is supposed to be low melting solder and the first two times we used it. It was but not this time. I was using it last night and could not get it to melt not even with the torch. It seemed to form a layer of something at the top and refused to melt. So I’m wondering if we got a bad batch or if something else had changed in it. It’s up in the air weather we will buy it again or not.

Very easy to use

Good stuff

Mint i tryed Soldering my bracelet with silver chips and could not get it to weld to the link but this was so easy to use and has welded the link back together

Almost impossible to use with a lighter. Using a butane torch is more feasible. Cannot control exact spot where the solder ends up because it tends to move around when it melts. After a few attempts my skills got better. The solder polishes well with jewellers rouge. Nice shiny surface. Good bond. Overall a very good product but be prepared to waste a lot practicing. Good luck.

Does the job

Exactly as stated. Quick delivery

The syringe came empty, kept trying to push some Solder out but all that came out was a few drops of clear jell, pulled the plunger out and was able to use a screwdriver to scrape up a small amount of gray paste that I used to repair a broken temple Hinge on a pair of eye glass’s, (THE SOLDER PASTE WORKED GREAT) the repair was easy and held solid.’’ THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE SYRINGE COMES BASICALLY EMTY ‘’ just a few drops of paste not even enough to come out of the nozzle of the syringe.
