You may find gards at the car yards will also contain rust (common spot in the old toys)

Tig is more expencive, yet good for tricky small work. It is alot slower and therfore will put more heat into the pannel - bad

if you take your time its ok. Also the tips on tigs wear and get contaminated if you touch the work etc

Mig is easyer to weld, cheaper, quicker and Fav. for pannels and exhaust, will weld pannels through to thick steel.

Arc/stick will weld heavy steal, is easy, and cheapest

(if it was for car work, get a mig, and try before you buy to make sure your happy, use gassless on pannels for cleaner weld, and do some welding on old pannels before you hack the car up Wink )
