[6pack] Under carpet treatment

[Don Becker]

Unfortunately, I just installed some Fatmat on the door skin (passenger door 
only) and will have to remove (sic). I'm convinced now that the Phoenix 
summer will melt the Fatmat into a pool of black sticky asphalt which won't 
be pretty. (Doors will easily reach 160F in July....well OK, June thru 
September to be more accurate)
Ordered Second Skin today...here tomorrow. Now, the fun of ripping out the 
Fatmat. Suggestions? Dry Ice? Heatgun/Blowdryer?

Thanks,

Don Becker
