tig works best for seem welding.it burns the paint and glue from between the seems so you dont have to clean it out.quicker.

I've always gone around the seams with an oxy and a wire brush first, then hit it with a MIG.

I've never heard of anyone using a TIG for seam welding - how on earth do you avoid weld contamination? It might burn the paint and seam sealer, but, unless you run an arc along the seam, then follow with a wire brush and then go back and weld, I can't see how you would get clean welds..
