Anti-Splatter

I have a jar of gel that I dip the nozzle in if I'm running a lot of wire and amperage. It makes a significant difference in how easy it is to keep clean. Don't use any spray on the metal itself. Mike
 
Jason at Fireball Tools did a video where he tested a bunch of anti spatter products. I don't think the cooking oil/Crisco type products faired very well.

That was really interesting. Thanks for the link.
 
Half the places we work at, if you pulled out a can of the spray, you would be gone before you got to spray anything.....
 
Most of it is x-rayed, they want absolutely no foreign matter, just the piece being welded and the certified filler metal.

Ah, makes sense. Thanks for clarifying.

I’m just a hobby welder so I’d never even be let in to place that was going to x-ray my welds. :)
 
Hello Horty!

Where is this FAB SHOP in Fargo? I go to FM on occasion to buy metal and would like to check it out.
