I agree. I would stay away from a flapper wheel though. It would be really easy to grind through the thin metal. I used a propane torch, putty knife, and a wire wheel with great results.
I prefer using small tacks mayber 3/4" to 1" long if for no other reason it looks better. I think the small little spot welds looks shitty. I tried to find more pics of mine but am having no luck.
A fire extinguisher is a great idea also. My undercoating kept catching on fire while I was welding my car alone. That shit gave me a headache.
