It took a lot more applications and brushings than I originally thought, but I was able to tin my eight loop wires last night. It looks like the working ingredient IS Methylene Dichlorine, as you suggest. The messages on the can are scary - like turning off the electricity if the work has to be done inside the house, due to the fumes being heavier than air and hanging at floor level ready to explode with an electrical spark! Jim M: I'll give your idea a try on my next attempt. Thanks to all!
