Go slow, short welds, and use air blowoff gun to cool the metal before welding again. The spray foam that Newell uses will ignite and smolder from welding sparks. Don’t ask how I know this. Keep a spray bottle of water handy in case.
Cover everything in a 10 ft zone to protect from flying sparks. One spark will ruin pricey upholstery.
