http://www.surfaceprocessing.co.uk/ this process is very interesting. Its not available here in Finland. How it is done exactly? What is the chemical used for stripping the paint etc? I would like to test with small pieces in my own garage.

I used this company in the refurbishment of my 131r.
The car was totally stripped & the shell taken by trailer to the company.
The car was submersed in a huge vat of acid. This acid takes of everything and destroys ALL the rust. It came back to me forensically clean & in pure bare metal form. I have never seen any car in this 'pure' state. It looked similar to a galvanised metal watering can.
The shell was returned to me peppered with holes everywhere but with only the good metal left it gives you a perfect starter state to weld.
The car was returned to them a few months later where it was dipped again (just to get rid of the surface rust accumulated since the last dip), then electro treated and finally dipped in a black undercoat so that when it came back to me it looked like a new shell straight off the production line.
I used them because, at this time, it is in my opinion by far the best way of refurbishment when a project needs to be perfect.   It is very expensive

Yes, it really sound like the hest wqy to do the stripping. Is there somebody who knows the correct acid and how its washed away in the end?

This SPL process is the exact way I want to do my restoration just like you have done.
Can you give me a rough idea of the price. PM me if you dont want your spending public.
I really would like to know so I can budget my own resto.
Thanks.

Doesnt anybody know what the stripping chemicals are?
