simon p Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 hot air gun and a scraper! agree. I see you're in Norfolk, where are you having it blasted? Quote
Mototechnics Posted October 9, 2011 Author Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Hi Simon. Not researched it fully yet but heard good stuff about Retro Power's service. Any suggestions nearer home (Ashill, between Watton and Swaffham) welcome. Mark Edited October 9, 2011 by Mototechnics Quote
biffy1984 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 I used a needle gun to remove my black stuff. A bit rough but did the job in about 10 minutes. Cheers Peter. Quote
Shug Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 I used a chisel and hammer. Came off in chunks then an angle grinder for the residue. Quote

mickappy Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 easiest way i found was heat the underside of the car with a blow torch to warm the floor up and the deaden just peels off soo easy:) took us a most 10 mins. car was upsidedown tho on a spit tho. its a shitty job with the underseal tho. Quote
Retro Power Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Yea big propane blow torch works well. Think simon's messaged you already, was going to suggest as I know he gets media blasting done locally to him and he's a lot closer than dragging it over here Quote
