Re: Removing RTV from Paint
What I have, BILL, is standard black RTV which was inappropriately used to
seal the rocker guards against the paint. As I explained in my original
post, after a struggle I got it loose from the bare metal on the guard, but
it's stuck fast to the paint. I can't just scrape it off as you'd do on
mating surfaces.

seal the rocker guards against the paint. As I explained in my original
post, after a struggle I got it loose from the bare metal on the guard, but
it's stuck fast to the paint. I can't just scrape it off as you'd do on
mating surfaces.

Re: Removing RTV from Paint
What I have, BILL, is standard black RTV which was inappropriately used to
seal the rocker guards against the paint. As I explained in my original
post, after a struggle I got it loose from the bare metal on the guard, but
it's stuck fast to the paint. I can't just scrape it off as you'd do on
mating surfaces.
