When I started doing body work there was no MIG it was gas or stick. Don't worrie a bit about the patches as long as they are clean they will be there long after the mig rust away. 6.50 @105.26

Looks awesome and I see no reason to sweat it. the only negatives on the process that has reduced it's use are too much heat causes warpage and the acid in the flux working it way thru the finish in time. But there's not much stronger methods. nice and clean looking job home of the Sox and Martin Hemi Duster
