I went to the welding shop today to get some CO2 Argon stuff and asked about weldable primer in a rattle can and it turns out it has been banned, at least here in Kalifornia. All they had was a GALLON of brushable stuff. What have you all been using? Any chance it's available at Home Depot Racing?

Spies Hecker etching / wash prime is VERY weldable and very much rust resistant. I painted a Jeep hood 4 years ago with nothing but the etch primer on it. It has sat outside uncoverd in the southern climate since and has NO rust on it, except for 2 spots where the primer was scratched off, and it has not spread out from, or under, those thin lines. I use it exclusivly when I am lapping two panels together. It does take a second for the weld to get good and clean but it does a great job.

I searched and found a few things from spies hecker. British stuff it seems. |
