To dip or not to dip - I have a few questions
This weekend, I got the box off. I need to get the panels cleaned up - inside and out. I also have a few spots that will require some small patches. My father-in-law had some old antique metal patio furniture dipped (very rusty) and then dipped again instead of paint. Looks awesome! The guy told him he could do my body panels if I wanted them done. Not the paint part, just the intial "de-rusting". Anyone familiar with this process? Leaves a black surface.
If I have the panels dipped, can I weld on them still and not worry about having to redip? Wrong process perhaps? Without using a sandblaster on the panels (which has been beaten around on here from both sides) how else would you get in between say the inside and outside of the bedsides? I added start and present pics for visual enjoyment if nothing else.
