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 saw the ultimate solution just last night in a thread on here.

The folks up in Minnesota should feel free to help fill in my blanks. There is a shop up there that offers dip stripping with an electrolysis method of removing all the rust from the chassis.

Redoing the teener

Precision Restoration


After dipping, they offer immersion e-coat of the entire chassis and curing of the e-coat. This, in my opinion, would be the ultimate refinishing solution.

The thread was the one where the owner of an awesome looking dark blue metallic 914 will be having his body shop refinish his car at no cost. (I learned something new from that thread {and the links he posted in the thread})

I believe the ultimate would be for that shop to actually do the steelwork on the car. They offer it, but I am guessing it is VERY expensive. They could get all the steelwork done on the car, re-dip the car and at the very end, e-coat the car. You would end up with a virtually new chassis freshly e-coated.

Precision Restoration (E-Coating)

just my $0.02
