It’s a good video but the best way to learn welding is doing it, you have to learn your own technique to a certain extent when welding and do what you feel comfortable with.
I know this is an old video but I would have to rate it as one of the best on how to MIG weld. Simple, concise and to the point. I’ve learnt so much. Thanks heaps!
Agree David - I've added to my saved list. He's dead right about the savings. Since I started doing my own vehicle servicing and repairs a few years ago I've saved nearly 2k GBP. It paid for an Oxford welder and a heap of tools. My local Ford dealer, who sold me my vehicles, has stopped speaking to me though. I've also learned to avoid them for MoT tests as they will now do anything to fail them in their hunt for things to repair.
P.S. I use the Eastwood sprays quite a lot. Rust Encapsulator and Extreme Chassis Black are great, although I've tended to replace the former with Jenolite now as it's a lot cheaper and seems to work ok. The High Temperature Coating (silver) is worth a look as well. Since I started coating all my caliper carriers with it the corrosion I have to deal with has diminished significantly. Every time I change the discs (rotors) I clean up and re-coat the calipers and carriers with High Temp Coating. Huge difference in lifespan and well worth the cost of the spray. Plus they look great through the spokes of the alloys.
I used to do autobody repair back in the 70s and most shops only had acetylene and oxygen welding equipment. It got the job done but it took a bit of skill to avoid warping of the area during welding. Also, the flux from the brazing rod had to be removed perfectly or else it would cause problems with the body filler. I had a spot welder at my shop which was really helpful. I wish that I would have had a MIG welder at the time. I lived in the rust belt and this welder would have saved me a lot of time and effort. Thank you for the video.
I have learned more watching your videos than I did in autobody 1 and auto custim painting in high school. So I am going to get brave and restore my 91 Bronco. Years of painting taxi cabs my buddies think I can't do real bodywork. So with your videos we will prove them wrong.
5:36 IVE BEEN SEEING THAT!!! I'm brand new to mig. At my first job for just over a month. Sometimes i think it just my nozzel being clogged. But ive been tryinf to keep it at a 35????
These videos are so good. Just got a MIG welder to start fixing my old car that I'm never getting rid of. No excess in these videos, just pure information in a clear manner that assumes nothing of the viewer other than a desire to learn proper welding techinique.
Now, I do realize that Eastwood's main focus is to sell their products and GREAT PRODUCTS they do have! but what really surprises me is how they are willing to share trade secrets and unselfishly put themselves out there. Esstwood has given me the confidence to tackle my own projects. Keep it up Eastwood. You guys are the s**t👍
As a part time and old school car repairer, I had increasing need to use the MIG welder. But I did find getting the right advice on welding technique hard to find. Also, without regular practice I find can make unnecessary mistakes when painting or welding. This is a really useful video, I use it , like many from Eastwood, as a quick refresher course before I dive into another major job.
I never put one of those welding devices in my hands but today I got encouraged, best instructional tutorial in the net, thanks, much obliged to you sir
Hi Mark man i watch all your clips over over boy you got me where i am today , i intrested how to make a normal fender for car not a hot rod special thanks to you and the crew .My Moto chop ,cut, restore excelent work its not all about buying Eastwood products yes all well and good.But the program is to teach others to move forward in life and to appreciate guys like you all that teaches these programes.Thank you all.
Mark has another great video coming out soon on how to make a door skin from scratch. Plus a video on the steps of painting a car. Make sure you subscribe so you don't mis those videos.
This video made it easy to understand. I am pushing to buy the 135 mig from Eastwood this summer to start learning instead of buying the cheap harbor freight ones. Thanks for these amazing videos.
been using my eastwood 135 mig a lot. one recommendation would be to put the chart on the outside of the door (though it may get scratched up). great video and product.
As im about to begin welding a inner fender to the outside fender. I just happen to come across this. Thanks for the info. I've never welded before so this shall be fun lol
Great beginners tutorial. If I may expand on it; Disconnect your battery when performing welds ON the vehicle. Also, if I missed it?, Proper wire selection, to match the gauge of welding material. Again, great video and that unit makes sweet welds! 😃
Thanks a lot I learn something new if I've needed to make a hole without a drill raise up voltage to hold with clecos I also learned the proper way about connecting to piece of sheet metal reinforcing the back around the edges kind of like installing gypsum board thanks thank you for explaining well.
awesome video, I am just attempting partial quarter panel replacement, after the weld is ground down do you have to go back and fill small holes that I missed? or will the body filler be ok to fill them
Thank you for making this video...I can see where I have gone wrong and put too much heat in the panel. Great tip to make a brace and spot welding them. Best welding video I have seen and learned a lot!
How about when what you are working on isn't on the chart inside the cover? I'm trying to do automotive sheet metal with flux core .30 wire. There are no settings listed for that.
It's possible with flux core, but more difficult and more to clean up / grind. Using gas will definitely be much easier and provide significantly better results.
these kind of welding machine i needed. i wish i have this one in the future. i'm still using the old model welding with welding rod and gas welding and every time i weld the metal sheet it begins to sink.
Hi, When you did your plug weld. Did you put your wire in the center of the hole? I'm welding a bedside on. I was able to use my spot welder in most spots, but on the front side i had to drill holes. I was going to plug weld those
Some people are going to complain about a chance for rust to develop from moisture being trapped by those flange pieces placed behind the repair panel in the example. The thing to remember is just how long do we want the repair to last. The rest of your lifetime, or for as long as you expect to keep the car? I personally don't care if the repair is going to last for 20 years, I'm 66 years old. Make it easy on yourself.
W up bro good video thing can do my chaser my car with only problem don't know hou to used gas welding can used to no gas thing work good car how much cost thank s much
Asking for recommendation...What would be a good mig welder to do some front/rear chassis fabrication on my classic truck 1/8" metal ie Eastwood 135 or Eastwood 175 ?
I have never welded a day in my life. Lol. But I’m getting ready to restore my grandmothers 57 Chevy truck. Can you explain the difference between using gas vs I guess its flux core? And what kind of gas is needed. Thanks
Ground smooth, then either body filler followed by epoxy primer, or epoxy primer followed by body filler. Have you seen this video which includes a link to get FREE step by step instructions which are easy to follow: ua-cam.com/video/Lw0ObOdWnRE/v-deo.html

You clean up and paint the front but what do you do to the back of the panel? All the weld spots will be open to atmosphere and would start rusting again. Wouldn't it? What do you in if you can't reach behind the rust hole you just patched? Anyone?
Hodge-Podge Garage if you were welding a patch in an area with a large amount of rust wouldn’t the overlap of the strip be bad if you didn’t weld it again or seal it from the other side ??
***** The Eastwood MIG 135 operates on 120 Volts and only needs a bottle of shielding gas (75% Argon, 25% CO2). No compressed air is needed with a MIG welder.
Great vid. Very helpful for a future welder. Covered alot of my questions, and some keys mistakes i would have made. Nice bead work btw. Circle motion best advice ever.
what i do is i haul of rigs that people want to get ride of till i get all the parts for one rig then i build it like my 68 chevy pu it has no rust in it perfect body no dings put a 454 stroker with tunnel ram heavy duty 400 turbo serpentine belt set up after market ignition with msd rally wheels lots of chrome and have only 1300 in the truck plus i traded some of the left over parts for paint and will trade a rust free cab for cowl induction hood for the 68 has to be metal hood have 2 sitting plus fenders stock hoods with no bend in them lots of boxes metal or wood on the inside this is how u save big money on rigs my 73 ss nova was even better but i give all the left over parts to my racing buddies
Love these videos! Man, I wish you guys would set up a shop like this down here in Terre Haute, IN. Even if it's just to teach things like this, it would be awesome to have access to. I have a Hobart 190 that I use for little things around the house or in my garage. To be honest, it's entirely too much of a welder for someone like me who has no experience welding but I thought that having too much power would be better than needing more power and not having it, so I went ahead bought it instead of their 140 model or anything else. I recently used it to weld up some cracks in my push mower's deck. I've never used gas--haven't even tried as I'm always afraid of anything that's compressed! (Me and things that can explode never make good bedfellows... I'm a wuss, I know...) But what I've found doing FCAWS is that preparation is everything, and as long as you use their anti-spatter spray, you can have some really great welds. If you don't use the spray, you'll have bad spatter but the welds will still be strong. My process up to this point has been to follow the sheet inside the door as closely as possible but then after sanding everything up, wiping the prepared surface afterwards with alcohol or whatever cleaner I have. Then if everything looks good, I spray on the anti-spatter spray (just a few spritzes) then try to consistently drag-weld using a 45-degree angle. The mower deck has been the thickest steel I've welded so far. I think it was around 1/8th inch thick, but even then, I didn't do any dimes or circles because even with that thickness, this welder wanted to burn through it and I think it was my technique rather than the settings as once I sped up my drag, things improved. I have a lot to learn (obviously) but I had some great welds with it once I got some things figured out. I really love this welder. Thanks for the video! Some great info in it, especially the part about the reinforcing of the butt areas using those strips and tacks.
If it's sheet metal, the MIG 135 is a great choice. If it's for all aspects of auto restoration (sheet metal to chassis and brackets), or general metal fab, the MIG 175 is the welder for you.

Hey guys can someone help me please I always get problem when I'm welding my tip always get stuck I tried everything I could but I still get the same problem
If I was you I'd go grind the paint off of the edges of your work, so you can get an accurate measurement with some digital calipers. Convert that to gauge and see if the welder is capable of that thickness. you could always test it out at varying voltages anyway.
Learnt more on here in 10 minutes than tons of welding channel videos on youtube.
Who is the operator? He,s the best ever johnchisholm40

Thank you for your instructions on the 3 method of welding . Very clear and easy to follow. Great Job.
Based on this video, I've decided to purchase the mig135. Thanks Eastwood
been using my eastwood 135 mig a lot. one recommendation would be to put the chart on the outside of the door (though it may get scratched up). great video and product.
Take a cell picture and print 2"clear tape to outside.
Mark your a bad to the bone!!!! I enjoy watching your informative video. Your the reason why I will try Eastwood products!!! Keep up the great work!!!

Awesome video, best Mig tutorial on UA-cam....
Thanks. Love hearing from Eastwood Guys!
awesome video, I am just attempting partial quarter panel replacement, after the weld is ground down do you have to go back and fill small holes that I missed? or will the body filler be ok to fill them
I like how they are reasonable on there prices when comes to tools I don't want junk but I also don't want screwed on the price
Thank you for making this video...I can see where I have gone wrong and put too much heat in the panel. Great tip to make a brace and spot welding them. Best welding video I have seen and learned a lot!
what different sizes of mig wire do you use for the different sheet metal gauges. .022, .020, .018, 016 et?
How about when what you are working on isn't on the chart inside the cover? I'm trying to do automotive sheet metal with flux core .30 wire. There are no settings listed for that.
I'm just starting out, having fun learning all the stuff not to do. Really like the style of presentation. Flux core
Wow best instructional video on UA-cam.
So i have to weld the quarter pannel to a 71 charger, should i use a backing plate sense i cant lay rhe metal on a table?
Can you complete this process with flux core or does it have to be mig? What are the differences in the outcome, if any? Thanks awesome vid too!
It's possible with flux core, but more difficult and more to clean up / grind. Using gas will definitely be much easier and provide significantly better results.
What kind of weld would be best for putting replacement wheel panels on a truck? I’ve seen some people tack weld(?) I believe.
If you're butt welding sheet metal, you would weld like he's doing the patch panel in this video.
Best welding video I ever seen
Hi Thanks for sharing, my question is what type of welder do I need to buy to weld like that project car?

Love Eastwood. Will be doing this soon and get me a welder!
Any chance you got a video using flux core?
nice video. can I turn my mig welder into a dent puller
he explains eavrything so good makes the job easy
Very good teacher. I agree with V T, simple and great explanation.
Only decision left is what model mig welder.
Asking for recommendation...What would be a good mig welder to do some front/rear chassis fabrication on my classic truck 1/8" metal ie Eastwood 135 or Eastwood 175 ?
175 is just stronger then 135. If u wanna to do something else with thicker material bay 175
A 135 is still adequate. The more important thing is weld joint prep. So grinding a bevel to prep for a butt weld
What is the difference between MIG 135 and 220 please?
I just bought one and can't get it to spark. Any suggestions?
What amps are you using on car body metal.
I have never welded a day in my life. Lol. But I’m getting ready to restore my grandmothers 57 Chevy truck. Can you explain the difference between using gas vs I guess its flux core? And what kind of gas is needed. Thanks
You will use the Argon-Co2 mix and gas will provide better results than flux core, especially in auto restoration.
Made my day ! Best video on this subject out there .
What size wire are you using? Thanks for the informative video! Saving up for one of these:)
Do you totally grind welds smooth with metal? And filler over that? Or welds slightly raised over metal just a bit?
Ground smooth, then either body filler followed by epoxy primer, or epoxy primer followed by body filler. Have you seen this video which includes a link to get FREE step by step instructions which are easy to follow: ua-cam.com/video/Lw0ObOdWnRE/v-deo.html
Good info, but it looks like the bottom body line on your door is off about 3/8" from the factory line.
Were you using Globular transfer for the thicker steel? I noticed there was a lot of spatter.
Best to the point welding video so far
Love your videos,and your product sir,
I will buy one of your mig welders in the near future.

Mig wire is burning right back through the tip, help,
Have to repair a 1984 Chevy truck bed what gauge metal would I need to use
18g is what I use
Why didn't you spray weld thru primer on the metal strips?
Because it was aluminized steel?
@@bobbastion7335 What about the backside of the fender itself?
You clean up and paint the front but what do you do to the back of the panel? All the weld spots will be open to atmosphere and would start rusting again. Wouldn't it?
What do you in if you can't reach behind the rust hole you just patched? Anyone?
Weld primer
What changes should I expect using a flux core wire?
a bad time
good tip to plug weld the strip/backing for the butt weld. probably helps cool it a bit faster with more metal and prevent burn through.
Hodge-Podge Garage if you were welding a patch in an area with a large amount of rust wouldn’t the overlap of the strip be bad if you didn’t weld it again or seal it from the other side ??
Save time and money by just using neodymium magnets to hold them in place. No need for the strips at all
i dont have gas would you have a vido on welding with no gas
best video on UA-cam
Is it good for frame work
Tus uses. Gas? Or kind of wire ?tanks
With the metal strips behind the panels, isn't it going to rust at those points?
Thank you, learnt a bunch and more optimistic that I did MIG welding
Instead of the one inch strip why not use an air hammer seamer and have less overlapping and area to rust jack
Hi i am zak I want powder coating gun and powder paint please tell me cost
Great video! Helped me with welding knowledge so I'm rewarding you for your great video and buying the Eastwood Mig 135 from Eastwood. Thanks Mark!
I need this mig weld machine
This guy is awesome. Great teacher
I've got one of those 135 migs, great welding machine.
Nice vid Thanks !! Does this also work with flux core ?
what other equipment do I need to use this welder? e.g. compressed air? etc etc
***** The Eastwood MIG 135 operates on 120 Volts and only needs a bottle of shielding gas (75% Argon, 25% CO2). No compressed air is needed with a MIG welder.

What size number you need metel do the doord need do my
what gases are used this process....
Eastwood Company, The welder machine come with consumables or do I have to buy consumables to start weld?
It comes with consumables and wire! Ready to go, right out of the box - you just need a gas bottle.
are you can put epoxy primer on top of bondo
Yes, Eastwood Epoxy Primer can go over bare metal or body filler.
What thickness sheet steel was used to patch the door?
We used 20 gauge.
I read 2 text books and in 10 minutes I can tell the difference between stitch, but and plug weld thanks.

Be careful as what is not shown and discussed is the extent of the final grinding down and knock down of the grinded weld joint prior to mud.
Ya I’m going Eastwood. Need help deciding 135 or 175
If it's sheet metal, the MIG 135 is a great choice. If it's for all aspects of auto restoration (sheet metal to chassis and brackets), or general metal fab, the MIG 175 is the welder for you.

can it do Japanese car panels or will it burn holes? Japanese cars are a lot thinner than old American cars.
If I was you I'd go grind the paint off of the edges of your work, so you can get an accurate measurement with some digital calipers. Convert that to gauge and see if the welder is capable of that thickness. you could always test it out at varying voltages anyway.
