well guys i wanna fix the body rust on my car and i was wondering if anyone could give me some insights on how to cut the rusted part and weld the new meatl in. also what will be better for doing it: electric or a gas welder ? i think i will be able to handle the electric thing better than the gas one. can u please help ?
I have no idea about welding or anything like that...but i think an electric would workj better...and i'm pretty sure you just sand off(or cut off) the rust, then weld the shit on...I think thats what they did on HP TV one time...i love that show
my dad welds and I have helped a friend with some welding. both use electric on car bodys

electric is the best way to do it.

can you tell me what kind of electrodes they are using ? and what is the power output for the welding machine ? i know if u go too high you can end up with a hole in the body

I dont sugess you try to weld your car's body if you have never weld before. Its harder then it looks, I am currently taking a welding class at college, its better be safe then sorry.
I sugess you learn it or get someone who have experience to do it so you wont ruin your car.
