I first tried a scraper, but it chewed my hands way too much. I then bought a cheap wood chisel (about 1/2 inch wide), and used that as a scraper. It has a far better handle than your average scraper, and as it is sharp it is really useful at stripping off the undercoating. The stuff pealed away in no time.

I followed that with a cup brush on an angle grinder. Once all was done I took to the panels with a cloth liberally soaked in mineral turpentine, and finally finished the job off with an ammonia based cleaner. Did this all before I even knew of Pelican and was really surprised to see so many complain about what a tough job it is.

Oh yes - I tried to see if a heat gun would make things easier but that was just messy. Parking the car in the sun for a few minutes was far more useful.
