Subject: scraping glue in the sun

I've been out in the sun (here near Victoria BC) scraping and sanding off the old glue from the upper bunks plywood - oh sure Westfalia, use an adhesive that lets the paper go in patches but sticks like you know what to the plywood - and it is nice and sunny and only 24 C. But jeez, I'm dying out there.

How the heck can anyone do anything down south, like where Dave McNeely lives for instance?

Just in case any other fool wishes to remove that glue from the plywood, I found that using a sharp paint scraper to remove most of the bubblegum-like glue, followed by a random orbit sander with 40 grit paper was the fastest way of many slow ways I tried (heat gun and scraper, solvent)
