I'm gonna have the gates acid dipped to get all that rust out. That's the last thing I want to pop up later down the road with all the work Eric's done to that thing. This is the place I use.

cool man. I always wanted to do that. I heard that if all the acid isn't removed it can cause havoc in the years to come...

This company uses a different process with a caustic biodegradable solution so you don't have that problem. Pretty cool deal. Go check out their site. I've used them before with no issues.

Seems like it was about $1200 a long time ago when we did it?? The gates are going to be about $200.
