  Only catch with oxy/acetlyene is heat/warping the panels.
You can surround the area with a wet rag and quickly wipe.
MIG will let you spot, spot, spot and not build up heat.  I 
never tried flux core MIG.  Since the standard is with gas then
there's usually a reason.  ;-)  Most MIG is with CO2 AFIK.  TIG 
tends to use argon.  Seems I've heard of some difference in 
why you'd use argon with a mig.  Maybe it had to do with 
aluminum or such.  I just don't remember the reasoning.  :-P
