One of the tricks I learnt early on with RTV sealant in medical
ultrasound water tanks is if you wet the surfaces with water and a
detergent wetting agent the sealant wont actually adhere to the
prewetted surface. Kind of handy if you wanted to force the sealant into
a clearance slot and remove it later.
Or was it oil? Damn I cant remember! I know kerosene is used to pre the
surface for better adhesion...
How about paper/masking tape over the gaps and spraying with that gluggy
sealant you use on sink drains?
Probably not very useful thoughts, sorry!

Both should peal off reasonable well.
One other thing I am concerned with tho. I always heard that the rotar
must be kept in a vertical position or the grease would drain out of the
bearings? Wives tale ??? I don't know. But I always keep mine vertical
when stored.
