Pugnut 9 1 Cars Posted April 5, 2010 never had the need to use this stuff before, but for spot welding my roofskin on i'll need something in behind the panels. A quick google and it seems they don't alwys do what they say on the tin, and i may even be able to use zinc 182 which i already have. Any sound advice?

Tom Fenton 1,650 Posted April 5, 2010 I use U-POL stuff, which conveniently can be bought off the shelf from your local Halfords. Seems to do the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rallysteve 22 Posted April 5, 2010 cheers Tom. I can recommend the UPOL stuff too. very good. Make sure you get it from Halfords though £11 as its £24 from my other local motorfactors! Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

woo83 0 Posted April 5, 2010 Dont know what the stuff I use is called (spilt it all down the tin ) It says "zinc spot/mig weld primer" , It's good stuff, was recomended it by the guy in the paint shop. I've done my whole car in it, and have had no problems spot welding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
