Undercoating - Lateral-g Forums

I know that a torch and a scraper can remove undercoating. Is acid dipping the absolute best thing to get a perfectly clean car?

Maybe try a paint company"s wax and grease remover. Spray it on and let it sit and wipe it with a red scotch brite while its wet. A bit messy but it would be cheap!!

I spent about 2 full weekends using some "undercoating remover" spray-on product from Eastwood. I think I got more off due to elbow grease than anything. I finally torched and scraped it and that made the job much easier. What a PITA!!!! If I had it to do over again, I would have probably elected the acid bath.

WOW, that stuff sounds great. I'll give it a try on my next project.

Might have to give it a try as well.

wire wheels on a grinder. works well and is a lot faster than using a scraper.
