.........it works...sorta

Thought I'd give it a try, bought 30lbs of dry ice (10lbs of it evaporated to about 3lbs since my wife bought it the night before)

it does work, but it's kind of hit and miss depending on the section of the floor, the good part is it would be a great thing to do in the middle of summer since it does keep you cool

bad part is that I leaned my arm against the floor (no dry ice right on that spot) and now I have a nice little patch of frost bite... )

In the picture is Mike Rose, he wanted to see in person if this method works and helped in the process as well....thanks Mike

reminds me of driving in the winter-time in germany.
if you ran off the road and had your window open, that's exactly how your car looked like inside.

I work for a Printing firm -Liquid nitrogen is used in the printing industry for removing the hard dried on ink deposits found on the printing press side frames and pretty much everywhere else on the equipment. Mike I have to salute your ingenuity, I'm well annoyed I didn't think of this when I removed the tar on my car

Good Pic
So what was the condition of the Tar afer the "HIT" Once all was evaporated did it just cumble off.

Guess that shows how much Mike thinks of Brad's advice?

I heard the same thing on Sunday when I talked to him on the phone

I did have to use the heat gun when I ran out of dry ice.........guess what??? It works

So does a regular old propane torch. Not a fun time but the stuff is gone. I didn't mind it as much as the seam sealer. I finally resorted to wood chisels for that stuff.

Yup, heat gun worked great. I actually enjoyed doing it. Need to remember not to touch the tip of the heat gun to my skin though...

Buy me lunch and I'll do it for you. I fit in those cars better than you anyway.

Jen

does the 40lbs of sound deadener on the floors include the carpets and undercarpets? Or is it just that icky junk that looks like tar?

I'm curious....

Bill

just the tar ....

Damn Jen,
I wish I would of known before I used the heat gun on mine, Not a hard job but if lunch was all it took for you to do it......well, You would of have a pretty good lunch

you make house calls?

Did I forget to mention that you'd pay for my gas and any toll I may have encounter? Learning more from Brad every day!!

Jen

i'll keep you in mind when my next project is ready for the tar-removal!

Andy

Well, the drivers side floor needs to be finished, but I'll wait and have you help AFTER the cage is in....it'll have much more entertainment value watching you do you thing inside the cage

Propane is not the way to do it. It can quickly catch shit on fire and melt wires hidden in the seat braces running across the floor.

I swear people... heat gun. Jenny can do it in about an hour (complete floorboards and center tunnel).

It peels right up with little effort... and you wont get frost bite... (what a dumass)

Yup the heat gun does work wonders on the floor boards and the seam sealer. Just don't use it as a hair drier
