I removed all of the tar paper from the floors of my racecar the past couple days. Anyone know the best way to remove the residue from the adhesive. I would like something fairly easy that I could prime over, Any ideas.
Thanks, Erik Madsen |

Therein lies your biggest problem. DONT use the propane torch to remove the tar paper. It gets too hot. It turns the tar paper to GOO and makes a big fat mess. When I say heat gun.. I mean it. The heat gun doesnt get anywhere near as hot as the propane setup. I barely run over the entire area with the heat gun and use a puddy knife just in front of my heat source.
