[quote=“suzukiriderman,post:1120,topic:22123"”] I can answer that for you. I tried soda, then sand on the bottom they didn’t do much with this stuff at all. I then tried to use some solvents but they would not help much either. I guess we are not quite set up for removing this stuff. I have stripped many, many cars inside and out without any problems. I could do it but at this rate it would take like 8 hours. I already have over 4 hours into it. If anyone has any suggestions please share… This stuff has been nothing but a headache. [/quote] So it took you 2 months to do 4 hours of work and figure out you can’t do it? ---
