Spot weld removal, best method/tool?

[SkidmoreGarage]

Just to pile it on, the Blair tool is great even on modern cars which use more exotic steels (harder), thinner metals, and engineered spot welds. It is a much better tool than the HF version. Mine hasn't broken any teeth and it's still very sharp.

Just center-punch and let the tool do the work. It isn't the fastest, but once you get the technique, it is pretty efficient and both panels are usable.

Was just about to go with the HF despite my hatred for that place. Glad I read this thread. The Blair tool is only $24 on Amazon, The 3 piece kit with extra pilot is on sale today for $40, almost went with that option. Always prefer Made in USA, almost always regret HF purchases. Now time to replace those rotted rain gutters.

You can cut a lot of holes with the harbor freight ones before shearing the teeth off, at least in my use. I usually have bought them for $2.99 or $3.99 on sale from there. They have came in handy on my crew cab for sure. To me, they are a throw away item anyway, like any other drill bit. There isn't many items I would buy/re-buy from harbor freight, but these are fine.
