    Baking soda is commonly used for neutralization up here in northern Europe.

    I know why this question was asked as I know many have had probs with acids (=rust) pushing through paint later on because of solder paste used before lead loading.

    Its shame to cover this car with paint as it looks perfect even without it, fantastic work!
    Yes, using solder makes the work look as if it's never had a blemish. My Dad always likes to tell how back in the '60s Uncle Harry threw out all of his lead working tools for Bondo. Now we want to see it used ! I also use warm H2O / baking soda to neutralize soon after tinning[but still worry]and always, always use epoxy primer to keep the rust monster away !

    wow,thank you!
