Car body dipping - anyone had it done?

Has anyone had a tin top car body dipped and coated?

It appeals enormously in terms of the process and finish, but I have read some stories of body seams subsequently leaking trapped acid and damaging the paint finish.

How did it go?

Did you get it dipped then carry out repairs, then dipped again and finished?

Any pics of the stages?
