Acid Dipping My 1967 Mustang Fastback : Acid Dip Process Explained

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Here's a close look at the acid dip process for classic cars, showing my 1967 Mustang Fastback project getting acid dipped from start to finish. Prior to acid dipping, I stripped off all the parts down to the main shell. Acid dipping is a less common alternative to media blasting or sand blasting, but yields much more thorough results because the acid permeates all of the open frame rail cavities and removes rust that media blasting/soda blasting can't reach. For anyone wanting to to perform a full "frame-off" restoration on their classic car or muscle car, this is the way to go!
Here's the video build thread on this '67 Mustang Fastback project: • Here’s What a $14,000 ...
* In step 2, "High Pressure Cleaning" the car was cleaned with a pressure washer, which wasn't shown in the video.

    This is far superior to media blasting IMHO. I had this done to the frame of my 68 Camaro. Then powder coating. I tell you that when you're starting with a perfect powder coated frame, I don't know if it's just a psychological trick or if it is real, but it makes working on the rest of the car so much easier. Doing brakes and fuel lines and all the other things that go on the frame when it looks like it just came from the factory is pure joy to work on. The suspension goes on better, the rear end...it just builds from there.

  • @SqueakyHinge

    Having been in this business in the early years of paint/rust removal I'll try to add a few more details from my experiences. The first "dip" is not really a hot bath but a chemical make up of alkaline products to dissolve the paint. The reason for the hot dip is to loosen the body filler, grease and to expand the metal causing more of the alkaline paint remover to penetrate in and under the finished coat. This was easy until a paint called Emron, I think, was invented in the 70's or so. That paint was not a paint but more of a plastic so to remove Emron small scratches were applied to the body and parts to get under the almost non destructible Emron so the alkaline would dissolve the primer which would cause the Emron to break away. And that is why the video shows large chunks of paint - Emron - breaking loose from the bear metal. And it had to be removed by a forceful mechanical spray as also shown. My system didn't do that as the paint was dissolved. And my hot tank was only around 120 to 125. The next step was to dip the body into and acid based bath. Both tanks are alkaline and acid based..not a pure concentrate. That stage cause the surface rust to dissolve. This also opened up the metal pores making the bare metal easy rusted again so the body went directly back into the alkaline tank for neutralize the acid base and assist in closing the metal pores. After and hour or so the body was removed then high pressure washed with a high pressure water pump to remove as much as the left over stuff as possible. The seams were especially flushed as much as possible. The body was then set out in the sun followed by an oil/water base spray which held off surface rust for a few days until the owner could pick up the body/parts. Still, the owners were instructed to pour/spray pain in all the seams so coat the metal then clean with metal etch and apply a primer ASAP. I never had any problem with lead seams. The biggest problem is people would bring entire cars to me and want me to dip the whole thing. And they did not want to take off the trim or the doors, ect and did not remove any pot metal which would have been damaged. It was a fun business which produced some high profile cars of all nature.

    I am purchasing a new diesel truck ( wish me luck, I'll need it ! ) and I'm wondering if I should spray the frame and inside body panels with something to prevent rust. I've looked at Fluid Film but it looks like it would make a sticky brown mess of everything so I'm wondering about using an oil , perhaps automatic trans fluid or diesel fuel. Or there are companies like CRC, Blaster, or WD40 that make rust inhibitors . Any thoughts ?

    I own a blasting company and prefer to use crushed glass on any car/truck body. Leaves a great profile for primer and it easily removes rust, paint, bondo etc. There are pros and cons with any processes you choose and I've tried them all over the years. But I always come back to the crush glass. There was a place not to far from me that acid dipped but they didn't take all the steps like the company you used. Looks like you picked a good place to get your car done.

It will end up reacting to your paint later on. I spent a long time chasing the problems from this. There are many ways to attempt the rust and damage exposure. Out of all of them that I have used, this is my least favorite.

    I cannot agree more, this is the way to go. One little point : after an acid dip like this, if you want really protect your frame in a effective way, it's better to do also a cataphoresis process. During the acid dip, you strip down ALL the protective layers on a metal surface, even in the hidden places. Without protecting with another dip, the risk is to have the frame protected in some parts and not in (hidden) others.
