The impurities in and on the wire along with oxides on the material will leave a very light slag. In rotary build up work it is needed to chip this slag off after about two passes, maybe three if you are using 200Amps or more to burn through it. This insulating slag will make the arc dodge around and give a lumpy finish. > slag.. > > The cored flux wire will leave slag just like a stick welder. > > Dave > > Some flux cored welds are self cleaning if the amps are set just right, the slag will peel up behind the arc into a nice curl.
