Hi all

I am due to take out some old cast iron rads and want to know how easy it might be to take them apart on site for ease of handling.

As they are all damaged they have no salvage value.

I have read on other posts that there are different methods of joining the sections but how can you tell when there is years of paint on them.

What methods would I use to take them apart or is there one (not a sledge hammer please) that would suit all?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Regards

jp
