I just replaced the capacitor and battery pack in an old Mecablitz 106 strobe that I bought in Germany in 1961 and that soldering fluid would have come in handy there.I never heard of it before.
Seems you cannot cut the wires back far enough to get a good surface to solder to.
I still do some repair on the old tube gear and I get amps from time to time with tube finals that need circuit work.About all that I can do short of replacing the wire is expose the bare metal and tin it good but some things are more difficult to replace as you cannot find replacements.Ron G
