RE: Point-to-point wiring?

Heat resistance is VERY important. I've spent a fair amount of time using nail polish to re-insulate PVC covered wire that had melt back/"burn", after soldering. :>(

PTFE is very good in the heat resistance dept., but it is a major PITA to strip, without nicking the copper. If somebody has a good source for solid core, tin (preferred) or silver plated, 22 AWG "Tefzel" insulated wire I'd very much like to hear about it. "Tefzel" is intermediate between PTFE and "Kynar" among fluorocarbon polymers for heat resistance and ease of use.
