It's going to require some finishing and paint if you want it to look nice.

Dry ice and hammer > any other method

It will come off pretty clean, but will still need sanding to remove bits of tar left over. There is only primer under the tar, so painting it all a solid color is a good idea.

My car after gutting/tar removal/painting:

At my place of employment we use air hammer "chisel". **** comes off like butter and if your careful won't leave any marks like hammering will. If your not careful you can cut through the floor though too! And after welding up the whole you will have to do some filler and paint to make it look good.

thread from the dead...sorta. Anyways, when you guys removed the deadening...how much weight did you save? negligible? if not why did you do it? Also is is alot louder in the car now?

Thanks
