Re: welders?
If you use a MIG for body panel repair make sure you use the right wire. Most machines come with a very hard S6 wire which is no good for sheetmetal. You end up with a repair that you can't work with a hammer and dolly and shrinking is almost impossible. If you must use a MIG get wire (.023) called "easygrind". Your welding supply place should carry it because that is what body shops use. TIG is best, like using a flame but heat is concentrated in a smaller area and there is NO Oxygen in your weld field. If you can gas weld you can learn TIG with practice.
