Hi Mark....
I don't have the problem because I don't grind and weld
without blowing the area clean first.  I do fitup grinding
with bagged magnets.  I tack and then the magnets leave the 
workplace.  Minimal heat and clean tools.  Magnets aren't a good idea to 
leave in the workpiece since they do influence the arc.  Especially in TIG
processes.
