    it will remove light rust, the sort of stuff that will appear shortly after sandblasting.

      And from my understanding it will also remove paint...is that right?

        My galvanizer wanted all paint and powdercoat removed before bringing it to them.

          It all depends on the galv guy. I hve found a really good one locally in Chicago who will dip as an additional service. SOme of the others were like Kevin, they just wanted clean steal.

            So I suppose the really impossible bits to get, like inside the door posts, wouldn't really matter. Even if the rust wasn't removed completely, it would get covered up with the zinc and would pretty much become inert after that.

            Right?

              Just have the bulkhead dipped, no worries about the nooks and crannies...
