Hey guys tearing my blaster down to paint and do a top end rebuild and ran across this cracked motor mount. Can I mig weld this or what

I don't see why not. Just clean it up good.

• Do not use brake cleaner on it !!!!​

Awww man brake cleaner is my go to cleaner but I'm sure I can find something else to clean it

Do a little Google search about welding and brake cleaner. The intense IV days from the arc reacts with the cleaner producing phosgene gas. Think gas attacks WWI.
The bit I've read of it, those that didn't die wish thy had !! Very dibilitating. This is no joke people !!! Can even happen at a fair distance.

Ya, I use the crap out of brake cleaner !! Get something from a welding shop.

I'll use some mean green on it one of the guys at our shop welds just wanted to make sure I could mig weld it incase the frame was aluminum. Thanks for the info it was very helpful
