Will soon be stripping old seam sealer and wax oil from certain parts and panels on my sport and I just wondered what the best method is for removing these two protectants?

What products and tools are best suited?

Cheers all.

Petrol worked best for us on waxoil. Apply with a paint brush, let it soak in a bit then wipe with cloth. Goggles and gloves essential and no fag breaks ;)
