Hi, enjoyed the detailed explanation above on brazing. I have a question going in the reverse direction. How do you unsolder or unbraze a silver-soldered joint between stainless steel and brass without destroying optical components housed within?

All of the strong acids have their own characteristics. If one is going to use any of them, you have to do it properly. Even acetic acid (a weak acid) that is the principle component of vinegar has its risks. When pure, you have to protect it from freezing, or it becomes sensitive to shock and may explode.

I guess it's a darn good thing the bomb-making aficionados have never heard of "cold bluing." One ounce bottles are ubiquitous, found in any decent gun shop.If you visit any bomb-making page, you'll see that one of the most difficult to obtain ingredients is nitric acid
Please forgive my cynicism, but this is your second post with the above link, both of which have spurious ties to question asked in the OP. I will give you option of either explaining the relevance of the links to both questions or ask that you remove the links, otherwise I will remove the links...........
