The heat from a Tig anneals the weld so you can hammer it if you can get behind it.
When I grind I let the spot get red hot using a lot of pressure so it anneals the weld, Using a shrinking wheel after grinding seems to do the same thing. It works magic on a panel that you welded and it starts oil canning. | | | |
