Removing old Goop from transducer....how? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

BrokeLoser · 01-01-2013, 05:28 PM

My buddy pulled up his transducer and now wants to reuse / reinstall it using the duct seal method...he was able to pull off much of the old Goop from the outside edge but the middle area of the ducer is still coated. What do you recommend?

You should be able to just pull it off, it's not going to be easy but it should come off.

Are those air bubbles?

Why in the world would you post a pic of some other transducer? I just noticed it says 2008

I've had success scraping it off with a razor blade.

Simple enough...I didn't know if we should be worried about scratching / scraping the transducer at all....Thanks
