When I was 14 I started chemically stripping all the paint off of my 1969 Camaro convertible and it was a ton of work. I was young, and had no money, so it was the right way to go, but man it sucked. If I could have afforded to do this to the car, I certainly would have. If you have never seen the chemical dipping process for a car, or even if you have, you’ll dig the video below as it shows the results with this 1970 Z28 Camaro. There are several options for chemically stripping and treating a car, but this guy here has it going on.
Video Description:
Today I am chemically removing all the paint and rust off another 1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 prior to its complete restoration. I’m going to take you through the process we use to completely chemically strip cars down to bare metal.
This is a more thorough alternative to sand/media blasting with no chances of metal warping on thin panels. This process shows you exactly what you are working with and gives you a blank canvas to work with!
It is a 3 step process:
Step 1) alkaline degreaser and paint remover
Step 2) Food grade Rust removing acid
Step 3) Water based rust inhibitor
The total process takes around 6 weeks because we use environmentally safe chemicals.
