Removing gasket from AL heads

tonysrt said

Permatex has a gasket remover spray that I was trying to buy local but Auto supply didn't have it. I was actually going to use it to remove a powder coated engine block. Seems to be pretty potent because the powder coat is very hard. I tried heat and some paint stripper but no help with that. Maybe I'll try a torch to see if that works.

During my steel mill working days we had a product called “Chisel”. That crap was wicked and like a slime that you did not want to get on you. My old transmission builder loved going to the car wash and using the hot Easter and soap pressure spray. He had a carrier on the back of his truck that he loaded up and headed to the self service car wash.
