If I were on a hothead, I would probably go with Effetre White, but I really like CiM Peace.

White is softer and will be easier to melt on a hothead, but Peace is not substantially stiffer. Some batches of White are a little more transparent than others, but Peace is consistently and densely opaque. I find that Peace can soot up on me a little on my Minor with a 5lpm oxycon. I haven't used White nearly as much, so I am not sure if I would have the same thing happen with it or not, and the problem is fairly minor anyway if I work high up in the flame. I'm not sure if the more reducing environment of a hothead would exacerbate the issue, though.
