As a newbie with car gutted, engine out, floor replaced and stiffeners added [thanks CFR and Restoration Design], now I need to think about final cleanup. After reading William Harris's plans for baking soda blasting ,that sounds like the way to go. Many have offered varing opinions and I would like to find your opinions on pros and cons of each. Help please. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I used to work in warehouse and had huge acid tanks, we would used 3% acid for dipping. The thing is everything that came out of that acid had to rensed off with water. It was usually 5 to 10 min. before the surface rust would appear. I would imagine doing a 914 chassis would be the same, yes, no? not galvanized...

Plus do you really want to remove all the seam sealer form every weld on the car?

Never done either one, so I probably don't know what I'm talking about anyway...
