personally i dont like acid dipping, if it isnt neatrilised properly then it can cause huge probs. Fella who does all my sandblasting work for me has seen several like this, he recently had a old datsun in for blasting at it had been dipped and then primered, but acid risidue had gone thru the primer and rusted parts of the car back out 
was a fully restored shell but parts of it were in a bad way again.

PS, you're right. It IS very very messy
I knew you mean the proccess, but that's something I could live with to have all the shit removed from my shell

i wouldnt recommend having a shot blaster do it at your home
i did and never again took me 3 weeks to get the sand out of my garage and off my drive and is very very dusty now
but i have a shell that needs to go back t bare metal aswell but carnt find anyone or anything to do it with looks like im going to have to slave away for a couple of months
