Sorry about last nada entry, but I believe a little bit of sanding will remove any silicon and with the rub rail off that will be something you should be doing anyway. Jim

:: :: Hi,

:: :: In the interim I'm looking for a temporary solution.
:: :: I've read that you can caulk around the rub rail, but
:: :: would need to use a non-permanent sealant so I can
:: :: remove the rub rail later.
:: ::
:: :: I thought about using a silicon sealant but believe that

:: :: and that other sealants will not subsequently adhere to.

:: :: Thanks,
