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.
