it's actually porosity. anyway, its very small holes and blisters in the weld, caused by inexperienced welders

Sugar on the back is usually caused by not having any shielding on the back side of the weld. It's time consuming and expensive to pump argon into the back side of the weld but it makes a huge difference when you're doing stainless...
