How to get Mk1 fenders off?

[marc_scirocco at sympatico.ca (Mtl-Marc)]

They are "glued". Coating is bonding the fender to the car. Heating the
fender to soften the goo is the way to go.

IIRC Chad in Manitoba went the more "brute" force approach (picture?) but he
did not want to reinstall the fender back...

Cheers.
