Did you? I've not found it good for TIG. I use Pureshield Argon for TIG and Argoshield Light for MIG. I also use the Pureshield for MIG stainless at a push - as in, oh fek I forgot to get gas - but its a cold slightly spattery weld, still sound though.

Go and dye your beard with Grecian 2000

We did actually use argoshield. It's likely it was down to budget constraints though.
