well all the welding i have seen with flux core wire looks like pigen poo i can not figer out haw this stuf works the pont of the flux in eletrikel welding is to form a sheeld to stop the weld from burning if you look at a welding rod for stick welding the flux is on the out side of the rod when you strike the ark with the rod the flux burns this produses a oxigen free enviroment for the weld if by having the flux in the center of the rod was ok then all the rods you wood get for stick weliding wood be this way as standerd as the flux on this type of rod is fragile and needs to be kept dry ones they get wet then ther no good i put my rods in the oven to get a good weld. in flux core wier you need to start the the weld with out flux then sum haw the small a mawnt of flux that is in the wire is all thats needed for the sheeld look haw thick the flux coting is on a stick welding rod the to don't ad up. i use co2 for my mig its not as good as proper mig gas but get me botel refild for £5 i go thruw a botel say every 12 munths and as i only do a bit it all starts out like pigen poo but by the time the jobs dun its ok the good thing with mig is you can grind it back off and put sum more on and ones filld with a bit of bondo and panted it looks brill
