Weld Through Primer

Recommended Posts

Pugnut

never had the need to use this stuff before, but for spot welding my roofskin on i'll need something in behind the panels.

 

A quick google and it seems they don't alwys do what they say on the tin, and i may even be able to use zinc 182 which i already have.

 

Any sound advice?

I use U-POL stuff, which conveniently can be bought off the shelf from your local Halfords. Seems to do the job.

I can recommend the UPOL stuff too. very good. Make sure you get it from Halfords though £11 as its £24 from my other local motorfactors!

Used both Upol and Zinc 182 and seems to have been similar in performance.

 

Does what it says on the tin :lol:

Dont know what the stuff I use is called (spilt it all down the tin :lol: ) It says "zinc spot/mig weld primer" , It's good stuff, was recomended it by the guy in the paint shop. I've done my whole car in it, and have had no problems spot welding. :D
