Remove drip rail sealer

Whats a good way to remove the drip rail sealer? I was thinking a small flat head screw driver then it clear up with a wire wheel. Has anyone else done this?

Thanks

I used a flat wire wheel on my makita angle grinder and it went pretty quick.

Re: Remove drip rail sealer

I did the same thing then hit it with some Ospho to make certain the little bits of rust wouldn't come back. Make sure you prime it before putting down the new sealer. Then prime again.

Re: Remove drip rail sealer

I used a flat head screwdriver and a wire wheel to do mine. You have the right idea!

Re: Remove drip rail sealer

I used my torch, and a screwdriver. It is very easy to remove when warmed.
