In Ft Wayne IN there is a business called Pro Strip that sprays a chemical (not
sure what) on parts a s large as a differential and bakes them - all rust &
paint gone - ready for etching primer. NO stripper residue to worry about....
I sent my fenders & hood in & rpayed etching primer...
Pro Strip is listed under automobile reconditioning.
We took a 240Z unibody on a jig to them - they blasted the outside with soda -
real smooth metal finsh & the inside with steel shot - more coarse metal
finish. A bit of running the shop vac in spots & minor prep & ready to spray
the etching primer.
