Default Mig wire

Problem in the UK as well Phil,

but you can reduce the problem and leave the wire in the machine by doing the following.

Take a clothes peg and a small amount of fine wire wool, fold the wool into the peg and attach the peg to the wire. When you feed the wire it is pulled through the wire wool which cleans the surface to a bright finish. The make of your machine will determine where you apply the peg but ideally it should be before the feed rollers as rust will make them slip.
