QUOTE QUOTE(Phoenix-MN @ Mar 20 2007, 04:49 PM) 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 Paul, Where did you get it done and what was the cost? Rick, I had it dipped many years ago at a place called International Metal Strippers, they were in White Bear Lake. I thing they are no longer around but when I did mine it was about $900.00. Paul |

The company I used is Redi-Strip. Located at: 100 Central Avenue in Roselle, IL (west of I-355) and north of North Avenue. Phone number is 630-529-2442 They are nice folks. I think they are open on Saturday mornings. They do a lot of classic cars. Had a Dusenberg in the shop when I was last there. Good Luck. |
