Reply:Shouldnt be much of an issue since the atmosphere of the weld pool is your shielding gas for the most part. Might be fighting pre-weld oxidation a little more. I have had more issue with humidity in the shielding gas than anything, before installing line dryers. Hmmm unless your in a coastal area where the humidty is a bit "salty"....hmmm. But that should be cured with a good prep as well.
