[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Propane torch and a putty knife

with a fire extinguisher nearby!

Unfortunately, that is one of the best ways.

Sorry, forgot about the extinguisher Remove the interior, it goes up quick!

Heat Gun and Kerosene.............plastic or wood scraper, that wont hurt ORIGINAL underbody primer.

Remove fuel lines, tank etc. If it were me, I would strip the underside of the car.

Assuming the car is stripped to bare bones; we're talking body shell only... would media blasting the floor pan and maybe the frame rails to rid the area of undercoating an acceptable means of removing undercoating?

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

Nah, it just bounces off!

[@wot]

Media will bounce off, you need to strip it first. Dipping the body will remove all the undercoat. Also, if you are going to media blast it latter, you will save money by removing the undercoat before you bring the body to the blasting service.

PLEASE follow Chuck's suggestion. It's the right way to do it. Nothing else works, or is safe for the car or you.
I used a torch MANY years ago on my '62. The flame lit the undercoating and it caught on fire a few times. I blew it out of course and kept going. The next morning I woke up and the entire left side of my body was paralyzed, from my ear to my toe. Had to go to the hospital. Luckily, the feelings came back. The evaporable gases from that stuff are NOT to be breathed. Don't do it!!!
