Re: Weldable Primer

When I bought mine, I called every welding supply place in town, and none of them had even heard of it before (should be an indicator of the level of staffing at them). I bought mine from the local Sherwin Williams auto paint store.

I liked the way it worked. The only thing I wasn't to sure about was it seemed like it came off easily. Like when I would clamp two pieces together and then have to move them I would almost always have to touch it up before I welded. It seemed to scratch off easily so I would question if it really worked....if that makes sense.

The purpose of weld-thru is to protect the metal during the welding process, helps shield the molten weld puddle from air and also provides a sacifial coating.

The only time weld-thru should be used is on two or more overlapping joints, it does NOT work on a butt weld.

Weld thru also has little to adhesion therefor after welding any traces need to be removed. You do NOT want to apply paint over weld-thru primer. You only need it on the overlapping seem.

For the best weld-thru primer head down to your Ford dealer and pick up a can of this stuff, it hands down beats the crap out of any other product out there.
