Ask any Toolmaker or Metallurgist, they tend to use it almost daily.

I haven't bought any for a while now as a bottle lasts ages.

That's what I expected. I tried weld well, plumbing suppliers, Twiggs in Wellys and another engineer supplier I forget the name of.
Received blank looks from them all.

I used to use it with the manufacture of Formica benchtops can be bought through the Laminex group. No idea cost though. From memory 165degC and 175degC.

Impeys sell a 2oz bottle for $150+gst Trouble is (apart from the price of course) is they only have 325 degF. No good for annealing except maybe to tell you if you have cooked the base of the cartridge.
