I am thinking about dipping my tub. I've been searching the yellow pages, to no avail.

Anyone local have a lead ? Just trying to finger it out.

Why acid dip and not media blast??

Thinking of a color change, and Brads topic is getting to me.

Blasting is cheaper, right ?

Blasting would be better in your case. Acid does gets rid of rust, which has to then be repaired.

Blasting is cheaper too. My total car is about $600 or so (inside and out, top and bottom).

Your Olympic Blue color is fine. Not a common color. Plus the original color is better, right?

If it were mine, I would blast it, then repaint it original.
Dave Cawdrey
I really like the Olympic blue. Good thinkin Karl.

So, no color change !! And I guess no dip.

I CAN find a blaster wink.gif

Kevin in Tacoma may hacve a source for you. If not there is one down here in Portland who has done allot of work for me. They can do a whole car with glass in and tires still on. I think though it is a better idea to get as much exterior stuff off as you can. Take a look at the one I just stripped for body and paint.
Go to the "Is this car worth saving" thread. They have done complete 914s for $450.
Clean up can be kind of tiresome, gives your vacuum a good work out. Recommend a shop vac.
