Ya if that's the squadron green putty I've been pretty disappointed with it in the past.

I would bet that you can sand most of it off and use a pic to get the rest off out of the cracks. I would definitely get it out of there. I knew better and used it anyway thinking I did not need much filler and it would be thin well I was wrong I now have a nice truck with a great paint job and an ugly ring where I filled in a sun roof window.

I 100% recommend the EVER COAT Polly Flex there is nothing that even comes close to this stuff.
