Hi Folks, Any tried and true methods for cleaning the dirt that adheres to butyl excess that squeezes out from the joints?  |

Looks like mildew, not just dirt. I'd clean with bleach first, then try carefully cutting / scraping it with a sharp chisel or utility knife. Afterwards, I used a thin bead of Gutterseal applied with my finger and wiped with mineral spirits. I did this before painting. Over time more will most likely squish out, especially in warm weather.

Paint thinner/mineral spirits... pure butyl is worse than RV butyl putty; stickier and oozes more.
