How do you remove the old rubber seal from a replacement car windscreen bought from the wreckers?

I bought a replacement car windscreen from the wreckers and i'm trying to clean off the rubber seal so i can have it fitted. scraping doesn't work entirely i need some kind of acid or acetone any ideas what might work??
Thanks

Answers:
Hi, you dont need it completely free of the old sealent. Just scrape off as much as you can and get it reasonable flat, doesn't have to be perfect. Do the same for the car side but don't be too ambitious or you'll scrape the paint. You should have priced up a new screen, cost less than you think and you don't have to do all of this.

The actual sealer is available from a few places and most fit in a standard caulking gun. There was a guy on ebay selling Kent fitting kits with full instructions.
