I've teachers this quit a bit, but everyone has a different opinion.
So I am changing my headgasket and have pulled the head to get resurfaced but the block I really wanted to avoid resurfacing. I'm using a metal headgasket so I know the surfaces have to be mint.

But what I wanted to know is what should I use to clean up excess gasket? I used a plastic scraper but it's about tapped out and there's still a lot of gasket left can I spray "gasket remover" directly onto the block? I just worry about it getting into passages. And I've heard bad things about 3m pads.

Thanks in advance.
