I am very new to brazing. I need to braze yellow brass to to yellow brass, but don't want the silver look.. Does anyone know of a brazing stick that has a gold look to it that will work with yellow brass? I cant seem to find one with the right melting temp. Im using an oxy ace setup by the way. Thank you so much for your help

Apparently you can colour the joined area afterwards to better match the base metal.

There is brazing material made by Harris that is 45% silver, the version i am describing comes in a coil, not a rod and when done brazing it has a brass color. You can usually purchase a small quantity, but if you are brazings lots of brass it also comes in a large coil. The diameter is about the same a baleing or mechanics wire. If you have a local HVAC vendor or distributoe close by u will find it there.
