If anyone has stripped there interior and that sticky factory dynamat is still in there how do I get it up? Also How do I make all the metal frame and chassis on the inside look good?

Been covered quite a bit. Try the "search" button; even Google it. But Biggie and Bersh240 got it.

sound deadening removal: sprinkle some urine graciously until it covers everything and then let it soak in the sun for about 6-8 hours. after that, the amonia will have produced the opposite chemical reaction making the tar substince non sticky

May I ask why it is that you are so concerned at removing it?

f*** that, I would have given up after 4 hours... Which is how long it took me to do mine with a 3lb sledge and a chisel.

Dynamat is a brand and your car didn't come with it from the factory.

i actually just finished this recently... took a few days of work but id say worth it. I used a stiff putty scraper, rubber mallet, gas, tons of s*** rages, and finally a wire wheel attached to a corded screwdriver... Tried cordless but its just a pita. Just wait for some warm weather, start once the car is warmed up, chisel majority off, then use gas and wire wheel for the remaining pieces.
