    Hi Guy’s,

    Bit of a random one for you here. I need to remove this slot system so I can replace a fresh composite board on top of this old sign. Are there any chemicals I can buy to make removal easier or do you think a chisel and some elbow grease will do the job?

    Steel wire wrapped around two bolts, to hold onto, and use the wire behind the rail like a saw.
