The plot thickings

 

hahahaha

 

It's unnecessary, even with gtaw..

 

It also gets the rust that's starting to form on it off. Easier to prep for primer and paint when done welding.

 

I only strip it where Im gonna weld.

Not true, you need all that stuff gone with TIG. Unless you like 50% air in your welds.

I've been welding for 13 years and am also a level 1 welding inspector.. Mill scale doesn't create porosity, poor welding technique and/or incorrect parameters do. I wouldn't have opened my mouth if I didn't know for sure what I was talking about...

 

I've found mill scale actually makes for a smoother surface for paint(unless its extremely heavy or coming loose. If there's rust that's just starting, a good rub down with xylene or something similar will remove that. Otherwise without extra coats of paint you'll be contending with the striations you made with the buffer...

 

Thanks. Ill give that a try next time. I plan on 3 coats of primer then paint. This will be going on my truck.

 

Good way to spend a Friday night. The flight was delayed 2 hours.
