i really dont see a reason you weld them , as for por 15 , i love the stuff , i used to use it alot , its a bit pricey but pretty worth it , just watch if you buy it in colors other then black , i used black and it was awesome , stayed strong and shiney , also used silver and in a short period of time it turned a greenish tint and recently after it started pealing off , id stick with the black if you use it ,when they add tint for color i think it changes the chemical balance of it and it doesnt work right
