All of the gas fluxers I have used (4 IIRC) had only one type of liquid flux in them, good for either brass/bronze or silvers. But I found the need for paste flux too and in the end decided that the gas fluxer was doing far less of the work flux is suppose to do, compared to the paste and sold off the fluxer.

I had thought that the basic foundation chemistry for silver and brass/bronze paste fluxes is the same but for additives that vary the temp the flux is most active at and influence for how long it is active. Andy
