Removing Undercoating?

[Marc Getty <marc@getty.net>]

Try Xylol/Xylene and a bit of elbow grease and it will come off. Or use
trichlorethane and just a little bit of effort.

Note that Xylene can give you a good buzz so use it in a well ventilated area
with gloves. Note that trichlorethane will eat through most gloves and plan on
having mutant children if you use it.
