Do I need to grind this coating (which is clearly not hot dipped zinc) off
of the plate before welding, or simply have at it and don't worry about the
coating.?
David, not knowing what it is or the weldability is one consideration.
Another is your health: If you grind the finish off where you're going to
weld,
and far enough back that its not affected by the heat, you'll stay healthier
and not have to worry about weldability!
