Okay ripped all the sound deadening out, but I've still got little bits and pieces of the tar stuff here and there. I've trie heating it up to scrape off but that's no good because the underseal on the other side starts to burn by the time you've got it hot enough. Any chemicals I could use to soften it up and get it off? Tried acetone and thinners and they didn't seem to do much or just made a mess. So did the wire wheel. Any other suggestions?
It's legal. About 10 Bucks per Kilo, a 6-pack esky will hold approx 3Kg. the Sound deadening turns to the consistency of creme brulee toffee when its cold. Dry ice is Approx -80 Degrees Celsius .
lol, don't, make sure you use gloves or you may lose skin lol. Yes dry ice is the go but it can be difficult on vertical sections.
Put it in a plastic bag and use gloves or whatever means you have to hold the cold pack in place. People l know used this method for removing the tar layer on the inside of a tank.
It's not that dangerous... You don't want to leave it to rest on your sack, but you're not going to get frostbite on your fingers if you pick a lump of it up and move it. Dry ice bombs are fun.
Tried dry ice, it was shit. Seriously did almost nothing (maybe made the chunks come off slightly larger and left slightly less residue). Used the pneumatic chisel which made super light work of it, way easier than using a hammer and screwdriver and didn't need a heat gun, dry ice etc. It's a bit more than little specs left over, just the stuff that's stuck on to the body hard. Will try kero and see how it goes, got nothing to lose. Wax and grease remover didn't do much. ps. I wouldn't be touching it with bare hands, accidentally put my hand on it and got a small burn through two bags. Cold stuff.
I did the whole car with hammer and old blunt wood chisel. Clean up the soft/left overs with ACETONE. .
