Just got my new Plasideck teak pieces to replace all the old ones on the boat. Any recommendations on best way to get old adhesive off mounting surface?
heat gun, scraper? Acetone??

Thanks in advance
Jim

MEK, harsh stuff Methyl Ethyl Ketone but it will eat adhesive very quickly. Wear gloves!

Hi Jim. Consider Goo Gone brand adhesive remover for this task. I've used it many times and found it very effective and eco safe. Most big box home improvement centers carry it in a plastic spray bottle. It even dissolves gum.

I know exactly how to do this.
I removed all my flexteak that was put down with 5200
I was able to get each panel off cleanly in 30 minutes
