Glue on Roof

Hi guys
Been rubbing down some of the bodywork today getting everything ready for when we start spraying everything in a few weeks time, anyway I didn't take much notice when I was stripping the 2a down roughly 3 yrs ago but today whilst bringing the roof in from outside I realised the inside of the roof was lined with old aftermarket roof lining material which I removed as I plan to re-line the roof later but I need to remove the old glue not sure what it is think it mite be Bostick or Evostick or something, any idea's please

Evo stick do a remover. Not sure what solvent it is but if you can find out its probably cheaper to buy a gallon of an unbranded one.

We used to key up the roof with an angle grinder and lather it in Evostick before applying a black vinyl type insulation to our vehicles.

It had bugger-all thermal value but did seem to hold back the condensation in winter. Subsequently, rolling off a Hercules, in to a ‘hotter climate’ it would melt the glue and the bloody lining would drop on your head.

Anyway, my guess would be evostick.

Doh sorry forgot the pic's

Evostick is soluble in petrol.

Are right i will give it a go and see

It is but its alo a great way to blow yourself up, been done a few times by people lifting up floor tiles. You really don't want to be in a clound of petrol fumes. White spirit is a bit slower and a lot safer!
Its been done before...

I wouldn’t advise having a fag at the same time .
Do have it well ventilated.
