[QUOTE="CedarRiverScooter, post: 447082, member: 15465"] Are you asking about 3M PF 5052 heat transfer fluid or 3M 5200 sealant? Generally, you want the aluminum to be pristine when you weld it, otherwise you just get a major oxide puddle. I wouldn't add any coating to your material. In fact wire brush the heck out of it with stainless steel & wipe with acetone just before welding. [/QUOTE]
