Re: [Amc-list] removing undercoating with dry ice

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I don't even know why I typed propane torch? Old Habit?
I have a heat gun now too, much more controllable.
Used it yesterday to soften the plastic welds on the hitch bezel for my Grand Cherokee.
It's a nice tool for undercoat and shrink tubing too!
