I used the 3M body caulk (used to apply ground effects) that people reccommended to me. I applied it, smoothed it and clamped it for 24 hours. The splitter is not going anywhere now. After using the caulk, the splitter looks like it is molded into the bumper. I am very happy with the end results, but, here is my problem, how do I get the excess caulk off the paint/splitter without stripping any paint?
