Try a wire brush in a drill or hand grinder.

Three gallons of lacquer thinner, lots of rags and elbow grease...  You have to get rid of the glue before you can attach anything else.

Use an old paintbrush to "paint" on the lacquer thinner. Let it set for a little while then wipe it clean with rags.

Some thoughts on this method....Do a small area at a time.  Lacquer thinner is highly flammable.... And the vapors will make one "High"

Keep the trailer area well ventilated in any case.

Yeah... you should have seen me and the hubby stumbling around the driveway when we climbed out of the trailer...

No... really... we did have all the windows and doors open and we did one area at a time and took breaks in between.  At our ages, we can't spend a long time on our hands and knees anyway.
