Engine Bay Sealant

[Tim]

hi all,

im in the process of getting my engine bay ready for some welding and plating, in preperation for the xe, and ive come across the egine sealant which i know must all be removed,

is there a quicker and easier way of removing it other than using a scraper as i have been doing , and its takin ages lol

Angle grinder with a wire wheel on?

that will make a right mess as it will heat it all up an melt it as well

[Tim]

i used wire wheel on grinder, true it does make a mess but its the quickest way and all you gotta do is wipe the engine bay down with a rag and white spirit and its clean again
