Unsticking urethane?

Recommended Posts

So I'm in the process of redoing my sump gasket and it is urethaned on. I cant break the seal by prying at it with a screwdriver or by hitting it with a hammer via a block of wood, so how do I do it?

ps. the reason I have to redo it is I used meths to clean the surfaces last time, and since meths is oil based the urethane didn't make a perfect seal so it weeps slightly.

Thanks.

Got it. Trick was to hold constant pressure on it and eventually the urethane stretches and breaks. Thanks to Glenn for the tip.
