remove sealant with a credit card and a wallpaper steamer

Hi
It should be silicone that was previously used on this, and i hear that you can buy a remover for silicone sealant, but i have never used it. I've always been able to pick it out.
Remember to get high modulus sealant.

Hi
Thanks for your response. The sealant is between the window frame and the plastic window sill not frame and building from what i can tell. I will try to pick it out. If I can't pick it out - will I have to try and dissolve it in something? Thanks.

Hi
Is this the sealant between the glass and the window frame?
Is it the sealant between the frame and building?
If the white sealant between frame and building this is usually silicone sealant and you would be better removing the old stuff and replacing it. It should be easily picked out and pulled up like a string. Go for high modulus sealant it has a fungiside to prevent mould growth. Go for a good brand like Ever Build or UniBond/Evo-Stik
