Removing excess butyl tape/putty
The butyl tape or putty has been spreading out from the edge seams and turning black. I can trim some of it with a plastic knife, but anybody know what I could use to get the black off?

Plastic knife to trim the butyl. then pull the excess off with your fingers.
Paint thinner will take the goo off.
But don't substitute lacquer thinner or acetone! They will damage the surface.
Paint thinner is petroleum based. It leaves a residue which can be removed with soap and water.
