Luggage racks are out, lots of goodies I can reuse in them, both floor heaters out, the wiring will be for the pumps on the water tanks, pulled a little of the internal wall away and round its all insulated so that can wait for the windows to come out after the wet has finished, so now will tackle the internal roof, trouble is I have heard horror storys of how to remove the carpet that is glued above where the racks were,
Any suggestions, is there a chemist in the house, is there a compound that will dissolve the glue so that it could be "peeled" of  

HEH!!! HEH!!! HEH!!! good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ditto ,Ditto.Oxy torch maybe.Maybe get the carpet cleaners in and just keep it.So strange that the task that should be easiest sometimes turns out to be a pain in backside.I bought a Pajero a few years back.Went all over the beast,mechanical good,electrics good,then started looking for rust.........well so far so good until I poked a screw driver into the under body and weather sills underneath the sides of the beast.(sorry a little unfair to the poor thing.)Well surprise surprise,what happened next was like a comedy the whole weather sill fell out followed by a cascade of aluminium coke cans,pepsi cans etc.Big clean out,fish oil,sheet metal work.Looked ok kept it for two years.good luck with your conversion,follow your dream friends.Cheers Ibbo.

Hi Mike Why not contact someone like Bostik adhesives and see what they recommend. Usually major adhesives companies will give advice /suggest if they have something. One issue will be if you need a powerful solvent it will be "nasty" stuff to work with /not sure how much you will need to get off. You could try commercial paint stripper based on methylene chloride/carbapol which "sticks" while it softens. Advantage is non flammable but I wouldn't breathe it in. How possible to simply cover with say a texture pack ? Also any photo's of the strip out so far ? Mike

He who laughts last, laughts longest Dave Carpet came off with ease, cut a nick to grab a hold, a swift tug , and away it peels, leaving a surface easy to cover Was all prepared to take Ibbos suggestion and remove the roof with an oxy, didnt happen, not even to contact bostik, thank you mike some pics supplied

went looking for the ribs and found all this insulation, not a scrap of rust, Geeez, with the humidity we are having and the dirt that came out of it was in the shower like a shot

you are indeed a lucky man Mike, any carpet that I had to remove left behind a residue that absolutely nothing would shift, tried all things, thinners, turps, wire brush on a 9" angle grinder (dont do that) tried burning it off (dont do that either, nearly impossible to put out and it drips flaming blobs and then you cant put those out either, and they hurt quite a bit!!!!) got advice from manufacturers and they asked silly questions like "do you know if it is our product sir, oh sorry cant help you" but looks like you got yourself a straight forward easy conversion, BUGGAAAA!!!! all mine were mongrels
