I would like some information on wire selections for shielded mig welding wire.
I am looking for wire for mild steel and stainless personally, but if we could get a whole list compiled that would be awesome.
Also I was looking for information on shielding gases. I know co2 is popular because it is cheap. And you need an inert gas for aluminum welding with argon being the most popular. But I need to pick out what kind of gas I want to use with my new mig welder. I will mostly be welding mild and stainless steel. I am thinking of using the argon with 3-5% co2 mix, but I would like opinions.
