Hi,
I have been practicing on some thin 1mm sheets today to get setup for when I can take the torch to the car for the first time. To get the best result I have had to use very low amp setting and slow wire speed on the mig and hold the tip as close as poss with the shroud touching the metal most of the time. The only problem is I think I might have overheated the tip as I cant seem to strike any sort of arc now. What do you guys think, is it likely to be this?
regards
David
