Regardless of what you use, I think you'll find as stated above that weld through is more of a name and less of the process of how it's actually done. Too much around the weld area will contaminate the weld. For cleaning paint out of the plug weld hole, I use a modified bit that's been flattened and backfaced to resemble a milling bit. Works well to clean the paint with minimal "metal removal" from adjacent metal. See here: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3063179&postcount=181 | | |
