is welding bad for your car paint

Mar 20, 2014 2 Replies

My husband welds in the garage next to my black mustang. Can this damage the paint on my car ?


It won't affect the paint but weld spatter will fuse to auto glass instantly.

Make sure he throws a weld blanket, or at least a cloth tarp, over your car when he welds. No synthetic fabric or poly tarps. A heavy canvas painters tarp is fine.
