I always use the Multicore or AIM solder with 2% flux. The best flux I have found is the AIM no clean Flux Gel. It comes in 10cc syringes.
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for solder and flux brands that they find a good combo to use, The gear I have been using is getting a bit old and was looking for some ideas on better quality combo's if possible? Thanks

What would you do if your server was stolen or failed beyond repair?

I use the same flux as cwispy and it is by far the best flux on the market
as far as solder goes , I like to use a lead/tin/silver compound , it has a slightly higher melting temp . it has higher wetting properties than standard lead/tin solders and also has a much higher strength rating . Cannot remember the exact composition and the label has come off the roll lol , but it is about 1.5% silver I think
the beaut thing about it is if you are doing close joints , you use the silver solder on the first joint then standard solder at slightly lower temps for each leg which prevents flow on and remelting of joints
BTW I hate lead free solder it is shite
Thanks gents, Thats a great help. You dont remember the brand of solder you use Oz, Did a quick search through some of the usual suppliers I use but they didnt come up with the type of solder you have? Found the flux no problem, PM'd you also Oz about the board, Thanks again too you to Cwispy - Much appreciated.
