remove sound deadening?
Well in my crazy project a while back, I put alot of patches on the floor that I want removed cause it didn't help road noise. Is there a way to get it out? Dry ice didn't work, and it's really hard to scrape.

Rep Power: 304 If you heat it with a blowtorch it should come up easier (i'm assuming you used something with an aluminum outer layer)
Other than that, you gotta scrape, and clean the residue with some acetone.

Rep Power: 304 Go to a hardware store, or walmart, both should have them, and get a heat gun. Might cost you 25 bucks for a cheap one. Heat it up and it should peel off with a little effort.

Rep Power: 762 it's gonna be super tough to get off but extreme heat should help it
If you really want to get rid of road noise, cover the whole floor, not just in patches

Rep Power: 304 100 lbs takes 1/10th of a second off 1/4 mile times. Saving your 10 lbs is cutting 1/100th of a second. That difference could be made up by a 1-2 degree change in temperature or humidity, or if you ate a big breakfast or took a crap before you raced....10 lbs doesnt do anything.
