Ive noticed this solder Ive been using is crap

It wont tin properly even when I use an additional wet flux .. Ive heard of some solders' being lead free now, but it says Sn40Pb on the label so I assumed it was a tin/lead alloy with flux in it ?
Today I was repairing a reversing beacon on a dumper and I had to go find some old stuff to finish the job and it worked fine .. so what wrong with this stuff ?
