77-2-20 PROCEDURES

7. Always use MIG plug welds where excessive 

metal thickness or limited access make 
resistance spot welding impractical. Make plug 
welds either by using holes left by the spot weld 
cutter, or through holes punched and drilled for 
the purpose.

8. Dress all welds using either a sander with 36 

grit disc, or a  belt-type sander and/or 
impregnated wire brush.

NOTE: Brazing operations, if required, must be 
carried out at this point.
