I'm getting very close to being ready for paint, I want to remove and replace the seam sealer in the roof gutter, but I can't really get in there. 

 

Has anyone got any great methods?

try a thin wire brush/brass brush on a drill more control than an angle grinder

You can get the wheel type twisted wire cup grinder attachment and this will get the seam sealer out. Like this

I was struggling to get in there with a wire wheel on the drill, haven't tried the twisted knot one yet

Aha! 

 

Good idea, I'll get the air dremel thing out!

 

Cheers mate

Just thinking small. Powerfile might not get in so dremel would be my next choice.

^{I just did this job, first I used a sharp 1/2 inch wood chisel with some gentle heat with the propane torch followed by a knotted wire brush in the angle grinder.}
