got a sheet of zincalume its .6 and ive used it for bits and bobs but i was wondering if it was any good for patches on a car? not the torry its a bit too thick i think, but im running out of panels for the mazda and the .6 seems to weld ok even onto thicker bits, but is it any good for a long period of time??
its a mazda, who gives a f*ck !

Zinc seal and zinc anneal are fine.
Cold rolled bright is best.

go to a sheet metal place and ask for say .9 makes it easier to weld just get mild steel doesnt cost much at all
last place i got it from was a sheet metal company i was told to help myself the bins out there
