Dry ice blasting .
Expensive though .....

I was last quoted 4k to do the underside of the boxster as this is what they charged last time on a Jensen .
Not a chance... I'll strip it and clean everything in the bathtub before I pay that

I pay $100 per hour to a guy down in San Diego.

Dry Ice blasting is popular at shipyards for barnacle removal

You can get your own machine for about $12,000
