Almost all modern enameled magnet wires have Beldsol-type coatings

These seem to have a dark red or maroon colouring as opposed to older
enamels which were a golden colour. These are certainly not heat-strippable.
I don't recall the heat-strippable enamels much before the 70s.
True... the most common color for Beldsol-type stuff seems to be the
dark red. But I think some (most?) green is Beldsol-type too.
If it doesn't vaporize in solder, I usually just go at it with
sandpaper.
