>If I ever got my Chassis repainted I would Have it waterblasted,
sandblasted,
then zinced.
Then I would decide what to topcoat it with.
Zincing with a high zinc content Zinc silicate or Zinc epoxy is as good as
galvanising it.

Question:  Does this process address the inside surfaces of the chassis? 
Seems to me these things rust more from the inside out (especially in the
areas that collect water).  Dip galvanizing will reach these cavities.
