I recently had reason to grind off some areas of POR-15 to allow me to install my new MII lower suspension arms,there's a support tube and gusset required on the front crossmember.
Despite good clean back with hard and soft grinding discs I just can't get good weld penetration.
By comparison the supplied (untreated)upper shock mounts had great penetration but where they butted onto the chassis the weld looked like chickensh*t....
Does the POR affect the metal this much?
Any advice/suggestions welcome.
