DaveK 0 Posted May 1, 2007 Goin to be seam welding (hopefully) soon but wondered if the underseal is going to be flammable Could put abit of a damper on the occasion if it goes up in flames hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boombang 2 Posted May 1, 2007 It does go up for sure. Should get it all off both sides of a weld to make sure it is a good strong weld anyhow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hengti 2 Posted May 1, 2007 just scrape it away from the immediate area don't know if the stuff they put on Peugeots burns particularly well, but it's likely to burn in some fashion i'd have thought - probably just melt and smoulder keep an extinguisher handy and some wet rags etc . i waxoyled inside the sills (that i'd just replaced) on another car once and found i needed to do some more welding it was rather exciting..

inferno 1 Posted May 1, 2007 exactly what areas are you planning to seam weld... its something im sure i can do, but dont have a clue where id begin tbh... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
16v205 9 Posted May 1, 2007 I use wet tissue on the areas of underseal likely to be penetrated by the weld. Keeps the heat from spreading and also stops the underseal smoking Rich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paintguy 0 Posted May 1, 2007 Yep. As above, it'll burn very well if you let it. Either clean it off completely, or find some way to keep it cool, and have someone standing by on fire watch. Wet rags are one option, but I usually have an airline handy to blow compressed air over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
