1.6mm white or grey ZIRCONIATED Tungsten Color Code WHITE or BROWN, are best suited for AC Tig welding applications.
Zirconiated, White, AC Welding applications. Better start up than Pure Tungsten, Balls up well and has a more stable arc than Pure Tungsten. Better current carrying capacity and high resistance to contamination during welding.

OK tried this today,I have a very dark film on the weld,
If you wire brush it cleans off,It's not soot it looks like slag to the naked eye.
