I use this Smart Caulk tool found on Amazon<https://www.amazon.com/Smart-Silicone-Caulking-corners-joints/dp/B003N3KQ6E> (of course…). Use the black handle caulk remove by slipping the hooked end into the caulk and working it around. Here’s the best part. As you start removing the butyl, let it form a ball and use that ball to “dab” the little bits and pieces that may remain. Those will adhere to the ball and you will not see any evidence of caulk. And I second Bruce Whitmore’s suggestion. I only use Bed-It Butyl Tape which I source from this guy (who keeps changing the name of his site…), “How To Marine.” Link<https://marinehowto.com>. Read his butyl tape posts and you’ll be convinced.

Not only that, it doesn't dry out, so that roll will last you a long time unless you have major projects ahead of you. I am 100% sold on butyl.
