I've tried a similar product, without much success.  Perhaps just lack of skill on my part; but it seemed that with the propane
torch, I could not get the piece heated hot enough for the solder to bond.  When I got out the MAPP gas, the piece started to melt
in places and the solder still didn't want to bond.  A micro tip on the OA torch might have done a better job (so I could keep the
heat in the pit) but it wasn't available at the time.  (I noticed that, for the live demo I saw, they used thin wall tubing, rather
than a thick casting.  Much easier to heat a limited area.)

However, my point was that, if you take a piece to a shop for chroming, you need to ask pointed questions about how _they_ will
prepare the piece.  Both processes are time consuming (aka expensive) and the shop may want to cut corners.
