[QUOTE="Tin Man, post: 493540, member: 7021"] I seldom use 5200, as is it too permanent for parts that will eventually need servicing (thru hulls, scuppers, etc. I prefer Boat Life which is a polysulfide. However, when I have used 5200, I did clean areas with alcohol, but as already mentioned it evaporates very quickly. I never had an issue with leaks. It's going to be quite the job to remove depending on how long it has cured. Not sure I would take it all apart at this point. Test. If they leak, they you can re-do at that time. BTW....are you referring to the 14 transom bolts as thru hull bolts? [/QUOTE]
