Body Dipping

you have to find a dipper that caters to the car resto crowd as there are dippers that do all sorts of work for various metal manufacturing industries. the cradle that holds the car needs to tip and roll to release trapped air as it goes into the tank, like the top of your car where your head liner is. the restoration shop I know that does have their projects dipped to strip the cars follows with metal replacement of rusted out and damaged areas and general straightening of the car. it is then sent back out to be dipped in epoxy primer. this seals the metal which build primer does not. how they treat it for flash rust after stripping and before epoxy priming I do not know. when the car has returned after epoxy priming, it is skimmed with filler/shot with build up primer and the sanding begins to get it flat. after it is totally flat and straight, the primer is sealed and painting with color begins.
