I splurged and bought a Lincoln Mig with the CO2 gar bottle and
controls. This to fix sheet metal rust on my Metro
I am a decent stick welder.
All I got from the Mig was splatter, really looked like crap. I left
it in a corner.
A trusted friend told me to try flux wire. It worked 100% better!
Yes, it left slag to chip off but the weld was decent with
penetration. Why? The machine wasn't trying to melt as much wire.
YMMV
