mastic or silicon sealant removal

[kangeroo]

Could anybody give some advice about removing mastic or sealant (I am not sue which it is) from sealing strip between worktop and tiled wall in the kitchen.
A product is available from B&Q etc, but it is expensive.
Thank you in anticipation.

Once its cured i think all you can do is use a blade, the cleaners are only to dissolve excess silicone when applied not once set

Use a sharp wood chisel.

If anybody has used this it would be useful to know if it is any good.

Have never used it but I suspect it is just another gimmick.
