I have two questions, i took my skirts and aprons off in the winter and i want to put them back on. First question, what is the best way to get the old silicon off of the car. Second question, what type of silicone/chalking should i use when putting them back on?

I'd try some goo gone to get the stuff off. I use gasoline and water but most will say not to do that. I havent had any problems but its not like I douse the thing in gasoline.
I used two way tape to put mine on. The same two way tape that window installers use....I got some from Apply auto glass.

I am not kidding when I say try a potato. Raw. It gets the resign off of your paint from silicone.
