Hi Sarah,

    I have never used Prip's or Stop Ox, but use Cupronil. I manufacture
    and distribute Cupronil. 

    It's makeup is slightly different from Prip's flux. Because of that
    I believe it is a better flux. Cupronil has been on the market since
    1974 and may be the original stop firescale flux. Stop Ox came along
    many years after Cupronil. 

    Firescale is the scourge of all silversmiths and must be eliminated.
    You must use an anti-firescale flux, no matter which one you choose. 

Good Luck,
Hope to meet many of you at the Orchid Dinner,
Lee Epperson
