Lee,

    I used to use just the Cupronil and I did get firescale fairly
    regularly. Now I paint the Cupronil onto the joint and place the
    solder. Then I heat the piece with my heatgun slowly and when warm
    enough I spray with Stop-Ox. I rarely get firescale now, and almost
    always get it only on 22ga and thinner.
