    Tool for clearing out wet core

    I have never attempted anything like this. I want to work on the cockpit deck.

    Sticky windows and a good deal!

    Thanks for the tip. A little more info will be greatly appreciated. How do you apply it? Does it go on the brushes at the sides of the track -- or on the glass - or to the bottom of the window track? Thanks.
