Re: mig gas? (forced00si)
I know nothing about welding, but actually inquired about getting one today to learn and I was told the exact opposit, you dont want straight argon... I cant remember what the mix was but it was co2/argon I beleive.. Now dont quote me because I'm only going on what I was told today.

Re: mig gas? (eLusive ek4)
Shelilding gas has to do a lot with what metal you are using, welding upon, and what metal you are using for filler. a 75/25 argon mix is what is generally used with mild steel, and I havent bought a spool or gas for SS (so i have no idea).

I was thinking aluminum mig applications. Tri mix is correct although some people recommend argon with 2-4% CO2 for cleaner welds on thinner stainless.
