If you have ever done a full build on a car that required stripping the paint in order to prep for replacement panels, or just a complete paint and body restoration, then you know that there are few ways to get all the old paint, filler, and rust off of a car. You can have it sand\/media blasted, whether dry or wet\/dustless. You can have it chemically stripped\/dipped, or chemically strip it yourself at home. Or you can manually remove it all with grinders, sanders, and elbow grease. There are advantages to all of them, and very real disadvantages as well.<\/p>\n
If you ever wondered what the process is like to have one chemically stripped via dipping, here is your video. This process removes everything from everywhere that the liquid can get to, so there is no other process that will truly strip more. But that also means that every single square inch of the metal inside and outside your car will be stripped clean and need to be sealed. But that’s all doable stuff. So watch and let us know what you think.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m 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! <\/em><\/p>\n It is a 3 step process. <\/em><\/p>\n Step 1) alkaline degreaser and paint remover.<\/em><\/p>\n Step 2) Food grade Rust removing acid. <\/em><\/p>\n Step 3) Water based rust inhibitor. <\/em><\/p>\n The total process takes around 6 weeks because we use environmentally safe chemicals.<\/em><\/p>\n
