You have to grind the galvanization off.

stay away from the galvanization, you can weld cast to steel, its just not going to be the easiest thing for a beginning welder and it definately wont come out as strong as youd like.

galvd metal has zinc in it to weld it requires big saftey measures and a fresh air supply

You guys know how if you turn on acetalyne without oxygen, it solidifies and becomes little black particle clumps? Galvinization does the same thing only in a much more toxic form. So when you breath in galvanization, it's like breathing something solid like pieces of a tissue.

so galvanized steel is different from aluminized steel? I made my downpipe out of aluminized steel using a easy mig and it came out perfect, with no dangerous fumes

i always thought they were the same... Does somebody know different?
