Skylight sealant fused to EPDM roof

[tcoholmes]

How do I remove a skylight that's sealant is fused to the EPDM roof?
There is no way a spatula is going to get between the rubber roof and the sealant Thanks

They now make plastic blades for the multiuse tool, just like plastic razor blades. Heat the sealant, then use multiuse tool at a slow speed and be patient. It works!

Tell more, sounds interesting... what size you got. How much have you used?
OP, chime in when ever, not trying to take away.
