well thats either going to take long or take a risk of grinding the metal under the bondo.
Just scrap it out with a razor blade, then use a kitchen knife or something very flat to dig between the bondo and metal, then pry it out

I say, you take a big can of gasoline, pour it all over the car, throw a match at it, and run away. That should def get rid of all of the bondo on the car.

no but once they get all that bondo off i'm guessing there won't be much of a quarter panel left underneath. so it'd make more sense to just cut it off and weld on a good one and just skip the whole bondo removal which will probably turn out to be a waste of time in the long run anyway.

really considering doing that..

umm..i think we will try scraping that poopoo off the side of the car and sand it down and see how it looks..maybe it'll pop out? heh

the gasoline and matches idea sounds really tempting..but it might make the bondo GROW!! and that would be bad..
