Re: Dipping / E-Coating
I also read the article on Mark's Camaro and I belive that this is the High-tech way to go when you are more concerned with overall durability. It is the best way to get the hidden sections and back sides of the sheet metal protected,but I have not tried it.
I have used chemical dipping but without the e-coat and without this you can't get paint or primer to all the naked sheet metal and you will have rust start on the backside and in the seams.
As far as media blasting,I have used soda blasting and it works great to take off paint, not rust and is very easy to clean up, compared to the other medias, just the opposite of sand blasting. It doesn't harm glass and seems to clean up rubber components real well (like fan shrouds [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smirk.gif[/img] ).
