Dumb and dumber

Not really sure. But if you can rig up some kind of support, you could run the drum and use a chisel to lightly take it off. Kinda like a big lathe.

Larry, no offense, but if the two of us started comparing stories of dumb things we did, you'd come in a distant third. ;)

I'd start with a heat gun and scraper/pliers/whatever to get the nylon loop stuff off, then do a final clean up with Goof Off or Goo Gone or Goo Be Do Be Do (with apologies to Frank Sinatra).

I use OrangeApeel. It really is a very good adhesive remover and doesn't smell like some of the commercial adhesive removers.

Larry.... I use a heat gun (low setting) to soften adhesives. I even have removed formica sheets off of cabnets when I have made a mistake installing.. Go esay on the heat (slowly) WW

WD-40 works great to take spray adhesives off

Can you get a knife or something under part of the fuzzy side? Sometimes simple physical removal is the best option.

Try a putty knife first, then go to something sharp.

Heat or lighter fluid (but not at the same time) sounds ok. I would not use goo gone or any similar stuff because it MIGHT soak into the wood and prevent the nubby stuff from adhering. Same with WD-40. Note: I have not had any experience with any of this, just trying to think ahead.

Hey Larry, Is there some type of interface that has nubby on both faces? You could apply that first and then attach your sandpaper to the new surface. The downside may be that the sanding surface would not be as rigid as if it were directly affixed to the drum. =20 Marc (the More moron)
