Hi,
I have a project of restauration of my rover mini and I need to do some boby panel welding and patching.
I am pretty far from home in Macau-China were communication is not easy.
I recently bought a co2 mig with a Amp range from 30-160 and I need some advise on the ideal setup.
1.This is the wire I intent to buy:
0.6mm (copper) Shielding gas 100% co2, Fairly standard AWS ER70S-6
2.The regulator: (sorry is in chinese)
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.98.oivK1z&id=16230930683
THE PROBLEM:
3.Mig welders are not popular here, the Macau gas supplier only supply 100% argon bottles. I try to ask for argon mix but they dont supply.
There always the chance of 100% co2 but i am not sure if they have, they will ask....
or i can try to go for flux core wire... and no need the gas, but then i will be in trouble since is more difficult for a starter.
Can you guys please advise me with this conditions, what can i decide?
Thanks.
Pedro
