- 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.
- 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.
