    Hi all, I am using a water torch only at school, to teach it. This
    soldering system is pretty impressive and if I can afford it easily,
    I surely have one in my shop and probably will be soon. The question
    is: I know that many jewelers put boric acid in the atomizer, to
    prevent surface oxydation. I want to know if it should replace flux
    if I use it at a good ratio. I think not but I would like to (what
    time saving). Which is the real ratio of boric acid I should put in
    it to have the best performances? Or should I buy a pre mix
    commercial solution? 

Thanks
