Eastwood's "Under Gone" remover and cleaner is the best thing I've found, short of using a torch. It looks and works like an oven cleaner spray, but isn't as noxious. Hopefully, you have a way of flipping your car up so you don't have to crawl underneath to scrape the crap off. If not, spread a big tarp or plastic sheet under the car because softened undercoating is impossible to remove from your floor, hair, clothes, etc.

Kerosene will work if you let it soak a few hours. It does stink though. No real shortcuts on undercoat. Elbow grease is still the best...BKH

I have used one of those high intensity heat lamps and a scraper.
Not a job I look forward to again.

I used a B&D heatgun on mine. Worked pretty good. Filled two five gallon cans.
