Grinding my weld

You're right. To the OP. Sorry. I got carried away.

No worries on my part. We all do it. Even Shield Arc who is the most organized and diligent poster I know.

I guess I started it... if I post to say I'm sorry am I further derailing the thread? Always wondered. I did post to 'subscribe' though. Interesting question by the OP.

And some relevance to me. I am trying to find best low/no spark grinding media that is affordable. Working in the offshore rig build at Singapore shipyard. Carry on...

Do you notice a difference in the sparks between the two? Sparks can indicate hardness of the metal by color and density.

I'd like to know why my flux core welds grind so easy compared to my mig welds. I like to use mig, the welds are so neet and clean with no spatter. The flux core weld is so easy to grind when it comes to clean up. I'm doing auto body sheet metal, could someone explain this to me?

Try some different MIG wire.

I recall someone mentioned a wire called "easy grind".

I think ESAB makes an "Easy Grind" for body & fender work.
