I have an original 914/6 that is undercoated with some type of asphalt based product over the factory painted undercoat.
Does any one have a good idea for removing this asphalt product? I am scraping it off with difficulty as the original paint also gets damaged. I have also tried brake clean and wd40 but they also damage the paint as it doesn't seem like there is much thickness to the paint. I would like to keep the factory paint intact if I can. Any ideas? Thanks |

I just realized that this picture was taken at the end of the season with LOTS more rock chips and wear than it had right after I completed the scrapping.
look at the aluminum pan in that picture. Its all beat up with dings. was shinny when first installed. point is that the paint looked pretty good right after I finished. probably will take a lot more wear without the undercoater on it. of course I did it for weight and not appearance. (25-30lbs... we swept the floor each day and accumulated all of the droppings into a bucket that we weighed when finished.) brant |
