Simple.... There's no easy way .

Various scrapers , screwdrivers etc etc anything you can get in

Get some thinners on it and keep cleaning it

The front end was the worst I found and the middle and come to think of it the back as well :lol:

Now go get them knuckles scraped

What areas are struggling with, nothing is impossible especially as its on its side

Will a heat gun or hairdryer not help? melt the underseal so you can scrape it,then remove the remnants with your thinners.

I think I posted this elsewhere but could you hire a steam cleaner,they will take paint off up close on heat of about 90 degrees,not done it yet but considering it.
