-The most time-consuming part of the job was removing the factory silicone bond that remained behind. I took johnnyb_s's advice and was sure to remove as much as I could of this stuff to ensure a tight re-sealing. I tried removing the old silicone both dry and heated. It is easier to remove when heated and soft, but once it starts to dry, the bonding power of the silicone is much harder to work with than the completely dry stuff. Hats off to my fiance who gave me an hour of her time to scrape this crap off with me
. This part took over 2 hours, but you could eat off it when we were done.
