Who among us has ever dipped a Teener? My project looks in prett good shape but I am scared of what I would get (or not get) back.

I had my tub dipped by the electrolytic method also.
http://phoenixhobbies.com/html/chassis.html It cleaned up very good and made it a pleasure to work on (no rust to deal with - only holes to patch). After it was dipped it was rotated many-many times so if there was any liquid that may have been left it drained out. The coating they covered the car with after dipping prevented flash-over surface rust and as long as you didn't remove it it stayed good for the entire time I spent fixing the sheet metal. If I were doing another car I would do it again, no compaints or regrets. Paul |
