And I don't think you'll be able to dissolve it. Anything strong enough to dissolve something old like that would probably have to be some pretty potent stuff. I know scraping will likely be back-breaking, but it's probably your only realistic option.
If that's the only viable option, what about running a belt sander over it quickly?
