Default Grinding and finishing welds on sheet metal

I know I am supposed to be working on my 38 Pontiac, but I am having so much fun in the shop recording these videos. This is something I struggled with for a long time so I hope somebody can learn something.

For some things, you can use a disk with a stroboscopic effect. Sometimes it's good. You see how much material you grind.

I use a pad with a rough sanding cloth a lot. It does not burn material and grinds quickly.
