I have the 72 stripped down and have done some work on the body. I keep wanting to go to bare metal over the whole car but have heard of horror stories about chemical bleed through....Have any of you guys done this?, I know the heater tubes in the longs will be gone but I don't plan on heat anyway. (don't really need it)
Is sandblasting more economical?, I really want to start fresh. Give me your thoughts..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Thanks Chris |

Work must be slow for the outfits I called today, They both seemed eager to start on my car asap....
I do beleive the dip outfit does bake it if I remember my conversation. He said they also rinse at least 3 times to remove the chemical. I'm still a little torn as my buddies at work I should blast due to the price difference, Another pisser is that I have done some rust repair and bodywork and now I'm thinking of starting over.... Like Brad said though.......I will have the feeling of knowing I did it right. Keep up the good ideas I will post some pics of the car. Thanks |
