5% silicone - as Carl says

No idea what type...but I found the 2.4mm rods far far easier to weld stuff than the thinner 1.6mm rods I was supplied with my welder.

( I think that's the diameters....either way the thicker was much easier to work with )

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will
