They will clean your car of all the goober and rust and such and
return it to you in a pristine condition (wihout warped panels) for a
reasonable amount of money.

The however is that every nook and cranny will have residue from the
dip tank, which will leach out over the next year or two and do a
splendid job of bubbling up your paint.  I have seen this happen on
several occasions.  I do not know if it is possible to rinse this
stuff out completely enough to keep from lifting the paint.  See if
they offer some kind of guarantee to that effect.
