well just throw matches at it Laughing

a blow dryer should work fine but if you lasso the sun or something and bring it closer. blow dry it on high and scrape at the same time before it hardens other wise im outta ideas

jboss, Use paint thinner, its the easiest and fastest way. Just wear rubber gloves when you do it. Or you could just f*ck around with hairdryers and the sun and sh*t. Laughing
