    Fantastic video. I would cool the panel exactly same as you do. My boss told me I'm doing it wrong. He was the one who's wrong. He didn't like anything I did.

    • @HackMasterBlaster
      @HackMasterBlaster Před 5 měsíci +2

      If you wanna get super technical you’re not supposed to cool the panel down but we all do it to speed up the process and reduce warpage. The theory is that cooling the panel down with compressed air or some guys like to use a wet towel will quench the steel making it more brittle that it has to be. I did collision work for 20 years and am still at it and I’m yet to see a guy that doesn’t cool it down.

    If you have access to the back of the panel you could use Intergrips. Better option than a screw driver.

    • @AUTOBODYTECH
      @AUTOBODYTECH  Před 4 měsíci +3

      Just looked those up, and they're super neat, but most of the times when doing sections, you won't have access to the backside.

    TIG welding has yet to be certified for insurance work,, long overdue,,, MIG welding is messy,,, in the government mandated MIG welding wire is harder than the steel panels,,, the Italian wire of higher quality, which is pure mild steel has much cleaner welds but is not used in the USA... Leave it up to government mandates to ruin things...

    • @keithammleter3824
      @keithammleter3824 Před 3 měsíci +1

      Interesting. Where I am in Australia, Italian wire is the only MIG wire that welding supply firms have, though some hardware shops have Chinese wire. Insurers only want to know if you have completed the right training.

    • @Chucktales
      @Chucktales Před 3 měsíci +1

      I agree, unfortunately they will go towards more things that require less skill. I was told at aluminum I-car class that tig welding use to be allowed years ago but less and less people are able to do it properly so they got away from it. Probably why more and more repairs use rivets instead of welds, easier to rivet then To weld.

    • @TireSlayer55
      @TireSlayer55 Před 2 měsíci

      will never happen for insurance jobs. too
      time consuming, not enough techs have the skill, and shops would have to buy new welders. not enough benefit for all the trouble.

    Could tig weld be used?

    • @AUTOBODYTECH
      @AUTOBODYTECH  Před 6 měsíci +4

      Yes, I'm sure, but typically, collision shops don't TIG weld

    • @jonpfive
      @jonpfive Před 4 měsíci

      typically its not since the high frequency start can damage vehicle computers. A low frequency scratch start works safely, but then it becomes a matter of following OEM procedures- I've never seen TIG on any OEM procedures.. Obviously a TIG is capable of producing an equal, or even better quality weld, but that's kind of a Pandora's Box with liability in the collision world.

      @darylhomegren2943 What I'm saying is follow oem procedures. Not every section should be sleeved. Adding additional strength may sound like a good idea, but could also change the way its designed to fold in a future collision
