flux core vs solid core

I've been using flux core in my little 110 volt mig for years and recently realized the solid core is less than half the price for a roll. Reading that it penetrates easier too which sounds good. Most of my welding is light duty 20 to 22 gauge sheet metal (i think 16 gauge once) plus i always clean to bare metal before any welding happens too. So should i stay with flux or go solid?
