I think You have a job on Your hands

once the main stuff is taken off then the glue will probably remain

Heat gun and a large strong scrapper should get the bitumen/rubber up and then you'll need a solvent to get the glue off.

Can't think of anything mechanical that will make it quicker :(

Google is your friend:

Tells step by step how to remove dynamat by heat, and by dry ice.

Reading both of them the dry ice would be a better option to reduce the amount of warping possible in the panels would it not?
I assume extreme cold can also be bad for panels though.

Thanks guys. not looking forward to this as it's my fault the soundproofing is there in the first place. Bugger!

wire wheel on angle grinder plows though that stuff, but be ready to clean the mess it leave afterwards. Sound deadened dust everywhere by the mountain loads, vacuum cleaner with fix that though.

Heat gun and scrapper first to get rid of the majority and then wire wheel to clean up the leftovers ;)

Holding dry ice against vertical panels can be challenging..Ive seen vids if dry ice used for small dent removal by shrinking the affected area..haven't tried it yet though...lol.
