That could have been disastrous if more had been like that and hidden beneath some glued on carpet or ??? You did a "Bang Up Job" with your remedy! Harry

I know what a hack! The previous owner should have at least used black or silver silicone so at first glance you might think it's welded.

I also forgot to mention that for AC TIG you will need "pure tungsten". I had a link to a site that listed which electrodes were compatible with which mat'l/processes. Those little TIG's are certainly cheap enough for learning and "Tacking" for welding by a better welder (machine) will save countless hours of frustration for sure. Will probably break even on truck fuel and cut off wheels if nothing else, but that will be a nice capability to add to your shop either way! Harry
