Getting everything ready to go to the media blaster next week. Unfortunately, all that undercoating needs to come off. So I went and got the rear fenders, the hood and the front cowling and got to work.

Alternating between a
oscillating multi-tool with a flexible scraper attachment and a
pneumatic needle scaler, I'm getting pretty fast at this (well, the rear fender took about 3.5 hours.) I managed to wear out my multi-tool (it was a cheap, poor quality tool) by the time I got to the second piece, the front cowling, but I was far enough along that I could finish up with the needle scaler.
To be honest, I'd just use the needle scaler, but it is a little louder and while my air compressor is a nice size for a hobbiest, the 15 gallon tank doesn't last very long powering this particular tool. I think I'll buy a better quality multi-tool (that is much cheaper than a larger compressor!)
And speaking of spending, I also bought a couple of objects this weekend on the internet. I'll keep those as a surprise until they arrive.
