I bought a new tailgate in 1987 from the dealer I worked for and it did not have any sealer on it... its obvious yours was applied before painting...maybe done on assembly line who knows I will have to check my original for any traces of sealer. its also possible that maybe be a replacement gate for a truck that was rear ended when fairly new and the sealer was something a body shop did.
