What did you use to melt out the seam sealer?
I'll be doing this soon, so I'm looking for pointers.

I used dry ice to take out the actual sound deadening pieces that are laid down in sections, but for the actual seam sealer removal i used a small propylene torch. I heated up a section and then used a steel wire brush to scrape it off takes a while but its the best way i found just heat up small 8 inch sections and it comes off.
