sweet looks like just the thing!!!!

so you can use it straight on the sound deadening? probably only need 1 can as the mr2 only has a small ammount

now there is something you definantly want to use in a well ventilated area

anything that has warning labels taking up more space than the product name and description has to be good

for all those people with buckets of the chips near their cars, how much weight do you reckon you saved? 2kg? 5kg?

yeah i dont think therd be a whole heap in the mr2 but every kilo helps seeing as everything else is stripped from it in the boot frunk carpets a/c etc etc

I wanna remove it to get to the rust properly, then I will be putting fresh stuff back on.

thats the way to go, i thought about doing that but i didnt have any rust in my floor or sills so it would of been a pointless excersize, i have heard of somone getting 26kg's out of a ke70, dont know how truthful that is tho

I'm doing the sound deadener removal for weight reduction and welding in new seat mounts for the fixed seat - rust removal is an added bonus as the car is basically disposable (was free).

Given that the average MZ10 has 2-3 wheel-barrow loads of trim, venting, wiring and carpeting, it's a small drop in the weight-reduction bucket... but every bit counts.

mine added up to about 15kg out of the aw11, thats all the stuff on the wall behind the seats and both sides under the seats as its fairly thick there. The stuff towards the front of the foot wells is much thinner so I havn't bothered taking it off.

Under the seats was quite easy, a lot of it peeled of in big slabs with occasional leverage with screwdriver/chisel
