Acid dip and e coat of automotive sheet metal parts
I need hood, fenders, deck lid, doors and valence panels (front and rear) acid dipped and then e coated. I know of one company in Detroit that does this but they are so backed up they won't take my work.

Ed. note: We prefer to keep these Hotline-letters technical and let the site's supporting advertisers respond in private to inquiries like this one. However, shops which can dip entire cars or cabs are rare, and no one wants to pay cross country freight. Consequently this question has been asked dozens of times and the inquirers rarely got any response.
- So here are some shops:
- Redi-Strip in Indianapolis IN, Roselle IL, Joliet IL, and Oak Creek WI; International Paint Stripping in Belleville MI; Kwik-Strip in Allentown PA; Metal Strip of New England in Worcester MA; Restoration Depot in Wauchula, FL; Pennsylvania Metal Cleaning in Monaca, PA.
Also, a place where that type of shop often advertises is Hemmings Motor News [link is to product info at Amazon].
