can you tell me why

For fluxing I use a pea sized ball of bees wax or a bit of cake made from sawdust and paraffin. The toilet bowl ring is synthetic bees wax, used to be real bees wax.
 
I've been using this for flux for well over a year. Vita-flux.

It's some sort of wax, but not as hard as paraffin, or candle wax. It also seems to not burn quite as fast as paraffin. Flux can be, must be some form of carbon to work as a reducing agent. Even drain oil from your car, IF you can stand the smell.:eek::barf:
