It wasn’t sold as Amtech, but when it arrived it had Amtech on the label. Which was a surprise. However it was obviously fake, because:

“A Dlvlsion [sic] of AMT Advanced Metals Inc”

and

“Warning: May contain lead. This product contains chemicals known to the state of Colifornia [sic] and other states to canuse [sic] cancer,birth [sic] defects or other reproductive ham [sic]. Consuit [sic] MSDS.For industrial use only. Not for resale,unauthorized [sic] distribution or personal use.”

Still, it seems to work for me, and as I don’t use high temperatures (I’m a low-temperature paste user) it works well enough. And it’s better than Chipquik… and $1.75 for three 10cc tubes I wasn’t expecting anything wonderful…
