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?

Welding galvanized metal and/or welding and burning zinc will make you sick.
I forget the exact terminology used, but it does make you sick. If you have to do it, and sometimes you must, try to wear a mask similar to a heavy duty painters mask for the fumes (3m sells the right cartridge) and if you get sick, drink alot of milk right away and lay down and rest...it will pass.
