    Great video, FYI my 94 968 cab and my 91 944 cab, neither had that yellow sponge behind the rear panels

      Thanks James, I think this was a home remedy, but I can't figure out what it was supposed to remedy.

    what a crazy fight just to get the seat out. Best of luck with the cleanup

      Thanks, this is quite a challenging project but hopefully the reward will be good 😀

    Epic work, but it will be worth it in the end.

      I have thought on multiple occasions that I have maybe bitten off more than I can chew. But I think I am starting to win 😅

    Dry ice would be best in your scenario I believe, far safer, far easier to use, but far more expensive. Check it out.

      Thanks for the tip Robert! I can drop the carpets with a specialist to have the blasted, but the car is going to be a challenge...but maybe I can find a mobile unit.

      As Robert suggested test a small are with crushed dry ice. This isn’t the blasting method. You spread a layer of crushed dry ice over the material to be removed. This “freezes” it to a brittle state (in a few minutes) which is easily broken up and removed. This is how racers remove the insulation glued to the floor pans (there are videos on UA-cam). Not sure this will work on the adhesive Porsche used but worth a try.
      If it works you’ll save a lot of time and mess. (Do this with the garage door open please!)

    Jon, you might try using chunks of dry ice to freeze the glue and then chip off with various size paint scrapers

      Thanks Jeff, I have spayed some WD40 on it overnight to see if it softens the glue. I'll report back with my findingd

      @@GarageBiljon I'm guessing that the WD-40 will probably not get you the results you want, but it will be interesting to see. Whatever the solution ends up being out will be information that I can file away for whenever I get my 944 restoration started.
