I have a wire feed MIG welder... can I use it to weld stainless?
I want to patch up/repair the end cap on my exhaust to see if I can't get one last session out of it over the weekend.
do I need any special wire/filler for welding stainless?
last time I tried to fix this pipe I used a buddies TIG welder and he forgot to tell me to turn the voltage down after he was done welding a roll cage into a race car... so I swiss cheesed the end cap a bit but it still held up almost all summer.
