The black sound deadening is easy to remove,
just scrap/ping it of with either 1" scrapper or a slotted screwdriver that is slightly rounded off, then soak the residue/left over bit with turps, let it soak in for 1/2 hour and them rub clean with a few nylon brillo pads.

But there is no point in doing it unless yor going to go the full hog and do it properly.
