another thing for the novice welder to remember is that welding galvanized steel is almost as deadly as using brake cleaner and welding.

when you weld galvanized, the smoke contains toxic gasses.
to weld galvanized, you first need to clean the zinc coating off completely with a grinder, and then when you weld it, it is recommended to have a fan behind you to blow the smoke away from you.
