I want to use the floor of an old reefer trailer to deck a car trailer. There's a 4 inch coat of spray foam that resists pressure cleaning. Is there anything that will disolve this? Scraping uglies up the aluminum and sandblasting pits it. I'm desperate for ideas..... .

Acetone will dissolve most foams. Probably want to scrape off as much as you can without damaging the underlying metal, then use whatever solvent works to take the rest off. You might also try using a plastic scraper (snow shovel, maybe???) to minimize damage to the underlying metal.

Good luck, doesn't sound like something I'd want to tackle.

Gas, paint thinner etc will melt it away. If you where to put it on a slant and then pour something like that on it that might just do the trick, but it also might not just an idea
