This story is indicative of what happens when a product is misued. So no welding on stuff that has been cleaned with brake cleaner is the lesson.

Or atleast let it dry plenty and blow off the area with compressed air to rid of any residual.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
