[Shop-talk] CO2 And Argon for MIG

[Jack Brooks]

My gas guy recommends a 90/10, but only if the steel is really clean.  It
does work better and is a little hotter than the 75/25 when the steel is
clean, but the 75/25 is a great all steel gas.

It comes pre-mixed in one bottle.

I think the standard mix is 75% Argon, 25% CO2.
That's what is in my bottle.
