Pig of a job that mate,
Some people remove them with a stanley knife blade and clean up, others soak them in solvent overnight and some people used the liner itselft with valve rubbing compound on them to clean the shims off
Renault and Volvo use paper and the plastic shims. The choice is down to you.
