Butyl Tape removal?

[Jalepeno]

Got a bit of Butyl Tape pushed into my non-skid deck.
Anyone have experience removing Butyl Tape from non-skid deck?
Mechanical (stiff fibre brush) and/or chemical (acetone) and/or???
Maine Sail, help?

Mineral spirits and a toothbrush and/or rag should work.

Cheers,

roll up a small fresh piece of same tape and it may pull the other off... Red

Jalepeno: Please let us know what works.

WD40 and a tooth brush work well.

How did you do that? I believe I can always learn about what not to do from others.

Hi Jalepeno,
An old guy like me would just cover it with another new piece of deck hardware. I'm sure there's something else I could buy.

Mineral Spirits works well as does Meguiars Cleaner Wax, which has spirits in it.... If you used black it may bleed and make more of a mess before it actually starts to get better..

Re: Butyl Tape removal? ....and the answer is...

I had a spot that was there for about 1 year. I sprayed a little WD40 and used a terry cloth towel. It took two applications of WD and about 3 minutes.
