   Mapp is all I've used for years.      I thought you would say propane not acetaline.     I didn't know alot of people used acetaline.

New construction I use air/acety and for repair i use mapp. On occasion I will use my air/acety B tank for repair when I need precise flame control. My mapp torch is the basic 50.00 POS it does have flame control but no choice of tips.
