Removing all the paint and rust off this classic MG Midget! This is probably one of the smallest cars I’ve ever dipped, and I decided to take a different approach with this video. Figured I’d give the ASMR crowd some love with leaving everything and real time and not yapping a whole bunch lol. Let me know what you all think of this format in the comments. I’ll keep up what I normally do but if everyone likes the videos like this I’ll throw a few in every now and again!

That body is probably the best Midget/Sprite I have seen. Most I work on are huge rust buckets, even my old 65 MGB would probably disintegrate in those chemicals. Thanks for showing us how you do it.

@DrFiero Год назад

Yours was the highest comment - and I was JUST about to post saying that if you'd done that to my '64 MGB - the ropes would have come out attached to little shreds of nothing.... :D

@bobulele Год назад

@@DrFiero same if my 73 MGB project went in there, only ropes would come out.

@DrFiero Год назад

@@bobulele - The really sad thing is... I got my '64 in about 1976 and it was already rotted away. All that's left now is the gear shift knob and tach. The rest was so far gone it got shredded around '85.

@11THEFEZMAN11 Год назад

I posted it before, but I’m convinced an MG would rust in space. I did many, and that is the cleanest one I’ve ever seen

@marcusott2973 Год назад

With many early monocoque designs, water traps, cavity protection, electrolysis corrosion because of unsuitable material contact, weren't well understood.

@gryfandjane Год назад

Impressive! I own a Midget 1500, so all of that structure is very familiar. Somebody got a good one, it looks pretty solid.

That's a pretty solid tub. Seems like a electro coat Zinc dip at the end would do wonders for longevity. Where do those drains go? seems like that's some pretty toxic waste.

It's pretty cool that this Midget didn't completely disappear in the acid tank like most of us expected. I worked for an MG Dealer and swear that rust was a standard factory installed item like the Lucas electrical system. You remember Lucas don't you, the Prince of Darkness?

@nolongeramused8135 Год назад

Drove around a 68 or 69 edition when I was a teenager in exchange for helping my dad maintain it. Great ride, but their primary flaw was an excess of British engineering. Even when I was 17 there obvious technical improvements to be made - I would have started by replacing the engine with something that wasn't better suited to a lawn mower.

@VoodooDewey69 Год назад

If your Seriously going to restore a car this is the best way . Screw sandblasting Media blasting and all that other crap. As you already know the first step is to remove the paint and Bondo The second dip is to get rid of rust. Then neutralize it and it's ready to go on a rotisserie.

@JamieBainbridge 8 месяцев назад

Interesting that these are such smooth bodied cars but anything not visible is all hard box and straight panels. I guess that kept the costs down for a small postwar auto maker.

@drubradley8821 Год назад

I would enjoy seeing a sit down type video, of one of the shops that you do work for, that paints and covers all their techniques they do, once they receive the clean metal body's chassis's from you, their system that works or is proven to work so steps are not missed for the "at home" guys. I realize that is allot to ask, and is time consuming. I also think, if a guy or gal were doing this high detail measure of work, that they already know what is required or good and the bad things to do. But for those who are just getting started and use this paint removal process, what the next steps are to do, for proper prep work? Either way, I really enjoy your videos.

@bikinglikebecker Год назад

Do you also buy used cars from scrap yards and restore their shells to sell to highest bidders? I could only imagine you would be making a ton more money... Especially if you let a few of the popular restore channels know what you have available... Power Nation, Motor Trend or Gunpowder & Gasoline as example.. Vice Grip Garage I bet have a few cars that could use your services.. I guess location could be an issue but buyers would pay shipping.. Those "Morris Minor & Oxford" Cars are pretty sweet little rides

@tractorsold1 Год назад

There may be many fine counter-examples, but my brother's Midget taught me to beware of mixing "mechanical" with "British". I hear from other RU-vidrs that Range Rover is tending to prove me right.

@xanthis5413 Год назад

On the acid bath, what is the Ph at and do you ever get spill over on the tanks?

@minute_of_dangle Год назад

Ph is around 3 I believe. It occasionally splashes but all of our shops floors lead to a contained pit. So if it happens it just goes where it needs to. Also the acid is food grade comparable to a strong vinegar.

I thought about getting my car chemically Stripped I just have one question what happens to all of the paint that's on the inside of frame rails and places that you can't get too Later do they stay with bare metal on it so that they would probably rust out later that's My only concern

@hanshoogendyk2203 Год назад

These cars and most from that era were never rust treated from the factory, only paint that reached them was on outside surfaces, lf you rebuild a car now you would rust proof the inner surfaces "after" it was painted as paint doesn't stick to oily surface of rust proofing chemicals

@miguelnoches7558 Год назад

The factory rust treatment was wax oil sprayed into those areas. you can still get the wax oil today. the wax oil worked well, it was other design issues that caused the rust
