WTF.... multicore solder is designed for general soldering, like tinning wires etc, the flux is there to help the solder flow a little better, when you solder cells, the multicore solder doesn't flow fast enough, thats where a pot of flux comes in.
Ashley, you use a little brush, or anything, take a dab out, and rub it on where you want the solder to go, then you got two option.
If your iron isn't meaty, tin the battery bar, place it on the cell then apply the iron with a tinned tip (it transfers the heat better) and just slide in a little solder.
If you got a meaty iron, place the battery bar on, tin the tip of the iron, then apply heat and solder, done, takes two seconds.
If you would only ask questions rather than typing without thinking, you would get these answers.
