Hi, so I have this solder wire that I got from my dad and it just melts and solders easily with a shiny surface (beats mr diy’s or cheap soldering wire everytime)
The problem is the label was lost since I needed to get more of this. It had a green label with guy’s face silhouette

Anyone might recognise this brand or can recommend similar one?

No brand, I just get whatever 63/37 with rosin core. Unless you really solder in large patches, can get thinner wire also

So that would be the best composition for solder wire?

Is this the brand?

Tried this, it was meh
Solder won’t even melt properly

Also, the guy’s face was like in the center of the label, not like this one

as long as it is cored , then it should be easy to melt

I tried this one, but it was just terrible, doesn’t really specify the exact composition on the label though

Can’t really recall much, but it had more of green foreground with white background. It’s vague so sorry about that
