Hello!
I'm in the process of restoring a 1969 AMX, and with all the rust, I'm replacing a fair amount of sheet metal.
One problem that I keep having is burn through.
Even with the power setting on 1 (out of 4) and the wire speed set to 3 (variable up to 10), I am having a tough time of it. I played a bit with the settings, but it doesn't seem to help.
The factory sheet metal is fairly thin, not sure of the gauge.
Where I have a fair amount of success is with the replacement floor pans. That metal is twice the thickness of factory.
So, anyone have any suggestions on preventing burn through and dare I say, be able to get a nice bead? :)
BTW, I'm using a FirePower FP120 mig with a CO2/Argon bottle. The setting on the bottle is set to 20 cdh.
Thanks!!
Steve
