I find snow-foam is usually enough to loosen most of them. Then blast them off with a pressure washer.
Essentially soak them untl they go soft.

If that doesn't work - Belt sander!  :evilgrin:

Douse the bumper in petrol and set it on fire. That helps.

I picked up some wipes in the £1 shop to try. Used them today and they're great, will definitely get some more...
