The best way (leaves the least damage) is to remove the paint so you can see the spot welds and then drill or cut out the spot welds. Once all the spot welds are removed the shelf should just fall off. This method can be a PITA though because there are alot of spot weld.
If your not overly concerned with the after appearance, you can cut off the shelf with a cut-off wheel or sawzall and then grind the welded on lip down flush with a grinder. Using this method, you will end up with grinder marks on whatever the shelf was attached to, but it will be faster. |
