Well, Dave, I hope you get your rear end waxed....especially before bikini season starts....

As for my undercoating issue, I tried a heat gun on the rear fender when I was modifying the fuel door area. It worked ok but was pretty slow. Another post suggested placing one of those halogen work lights on the back side. They heat up really fast and it supposedly scrapes right off. I read somewhere else about using oven cleaner on it and let it sit over night. Someone also recommend Jasco Adhesive Remover but I haven't tried that either. Oh, I don't care about the existing paint. It's coming off anyway....

I think the biggest reasons for undercoating these cars that probably aren't going to experience much inclement weather is to try to prevent gravel starring on the fenders and for sound deadening purposes. It does help curb some road noise.
