The flux used was

        "Indalloy Flux # 2", made by 

        Indium Corporation of America
        1676 Lincoln Ave
        PO Box 269, Utica, NY, USA
        13503

There may be better solder to use, but we just used 60/40 resin core solder.
The resin did not seem to create a problem with the Indalloy flux.  The
fumes however are really nasty.  We set up a box fan and stayed up wind of
the smoke.  The breeze did not affect the heating capability of the 500 W
iron.

The manufacturer can probably provide further advice regarding compatibility
of materials.
