Best way to remove undercoating?

Just like the title says. I know this is gonna suck the entire underside of the cars covered in it at least there isn't any rust.. Any products that work ? I think eastwood has something for this? Steam cleaning it off? I would like something that won't destroy the paint underneath.

I'd say Diesel, Rags, Pressure washer, and a few days lol. Maybe cleaning the little left over some brake clean. May not be the best way, But if you use a stripper it'll take paint too.
