put it in the oven at 250 degrees F for about 20 minutes and pull apart.

To put it back together, heat it to moisten the sealant that's on there and add a bead of silicone sealant before putting it back together.

I've gotta do that too, not clean them but re-seal them, another winter time project.

putting them in the oven is risky... especially knowing how expensive they are...

Anyways... i would just use a squeege like the ones they use to clean out paintball guns... but i don't know... I've been thinkiing about it since there is a bit of "dew" in my left inspire tail... Wonder if its a defect
