How to remove sounded deadener and POR15...

I am building my car from the ground up.... again.

I used a lot of Dynamat and FatMat on the interior, as well as POR-15 on the undrerside. Used one coat in the inside as well.

I have every last bolt out of the car, minus the hatch, motor and tranny left to go.

Once those are out I want to start to strip the car down to metal to fix all the patchy work I did at a teenager (I am 30 now). I want to smooth the firewall and wheels wells. I also want to remake the rust patch pannels I had made before.

But to get to all these things I need to remove the sound deadener.

What is the best way to do this? Heat gun, time and maybe some sort of miniral spirits after?

Any suggestions?

I have never used it but this is what POR 15 recommends.

Try using dry ice and a hammer, Dump the dry ice on the floor board then start hitting the floor with the hammer, not hard enough to dent the floor also a chisel once the sound deadener start to chip up you can get under it with the chisel and hit on it to pop it loose.
