Let the topic . I was welding some SS for a header and I notice that I was not getting the nice gold and blue look . Gas is set at 15 and welding around 70 amp . What do I need to do to get this SS pipings to look nice and gold .

 

I run my gas @ ~25ish.. Is the stainless clean?

 

What thickness tube? I set my machine for 16 gage 304 stainless at 37 amps and usually run at around 3/4 pedal (~ 30 amps) and get full penetration with an argon purge.

 

Yes the material is clean , and it's 16 gauge

 

Set machine @ 30 amps and only use 1/2 to 3/4 of the pedal.

Take your time and go slow!

 

Thanks Casey

 

and use a gas lens and the biggest cup you can get for it.
