[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 241565, member: 6937"] If you have a spoolgun, then, you've got it made. Much faster than TIG, and a more reliable wire feed system with aluminum than using a typical MIG. Remember to use ER5356 wire, not 4043, as 5000 series filler wire is used for marine applications, 4043 is more susceptible to corrosion. 5356 has a lot more spatter and smoke than 4043, but again, it's rated for marine applications, and it's more forgiving of minor contaminants in the base metal.
