Default Removal of Black sound deadening stuff !!

All that black crap stuck to the floor and everywhere!!

Whats the best way to get it all off.

Tried getting it of with a scraper and petrol but took hours to do a small part.

Anyone got a good solution.

Cheers
Dave

Heat gun mate! Black and decker paint stripper thingy!

But you'll still have to put some elbow grease into it!

Heat it gently and at the same time get a scraper under it, if you move the heat and follow it with the scraper it comes off very easily.

I have tried loads of different ways and that by far is the simplest cleanest way of doing it

If its on a ford mate just gently push in the middle of the panel and the whole section will drop out, then just weld in a brand new one...Job done

Buy some dry ice and put it on and leave it for abit, then just shatter it off as it will have become brittle from the cold
