G'day RR Jackson,

    House of Jewelry lists 'Griffith Prip's flux' in their 2003 catalog.
    I used Prip's long ago and found it quick and easy to clean, but I
    experienced porosity at high temps when using it with hard solders. 

    Apecs Investment Castings Pty Ltd supplies 'Apecs Bright Silver'
    which resists fire scale and can be cast and worked as sterling
    silver. I have worked on their castings and their 'bright silver'
    really is bright and free of fire scale. 

Regards, Alastair
