[DML] Re: Heatgun + Frame = Bye Bye Epoxy



Just be careful - there are some boxed-in areas where you'll remove 
the epoxy (i.e. it will fall off the back side of the metal) but 
can't get anything back in there to re-coat it. Particularly the 
front frame right behind the rack. The only way in there is either to 
drill a hole in the center of the panel or remove and re-weld it. 

What you are seeing seems normal, mine was like that too. 

What are you going to replace the epoxy with?
