Hey Henry.
Not sure if this is practical for you, but the best method I found was to
heat the back of the shroud with a propane gas torch. The heat movement of
the alloy together with the 'cooking' of the plastic releases the
'stiction'. The stuff releases at the edges first and can be pulled off in
lumps.
Just a UK two-pennorth.

Subject: Removing Bondo
Hello:
What is the best method to remove old bondo from the aluminum cowl?
I fear that sanding will remove too much metal.
Is there a chemical that will dissolve bondo and not the aluminum?
Thanks
