When I restored my TR4A many years ago, I had it undercoated. The boys
at Ziebart got a little carried away and coated the engine compartment
also. Looked like hell, but there it was. A few years ago I had the
engine out and decided to see what it would take to clean it up. Most
came off with a putty knife since Ziebart never completely hardens. The
remainder rubbed off with rags soaked in paint thinner . The whole job
was surprisingly easy, one of the few times I can say this about my
car. Not sure I would want to do the entire underside and frame this
way, but it is good for some areas.
