If you want the ultimate paint, filler, and rust removal, then chemically dipping your ride is the way to go. With that said, this is not the choice for those wanting things to be quick and easy. The process takes some time, and the thorough nature of this dipping process also means that there are other steps to coat metal that wouldn’t otherwise be exposed and bare. But they have this down, and if you are doing a ground up muscle car restoration then this is the ultimate way to go.
In the video below you will see the process and what it takes to strip down this 1967 Pontiac GTO.
Video Description:
Today I am chemically removing all the paint and rust off this classic 1967 Pontiac GTO prior to its complete restoration by Korek designs. Make sure to follow them on Facebook and Instagram to get updates on this 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 canvis 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.
