Not all stainless rods work that well, but a good percentage of them do. I worked for one gentleman who would do some stainless steel jobs at close to cost because he enjoyed using the rods so much. If you choose to use stainless electrodes, the slag coating on the weld can sometimes be "actively self cleaning". As the weld cools, the hot slag coating will pop off the weld. It usually happens about the moment after you decide to lift up your welding helmet.
Yes thats what happens slag in the face now i flip it over befor that happens
