It is also important to realize YOU SHOULD NEVER APPLY HARDFACING DIRECTLY OVER OLDER HARDFACING.

Hardsurface directly on top of hardsurface, rarely results in a secure weld.  The new weld deposit often chips off, so your material and labor investments are lost.

What is referred to as a Butter Pass needs to be between the new and old hardfacing.  Think of applying butter between two pieces of bread, to help them stick together.  Some also call this a Cushion Layer.
