I had to remove the Pro-Seal from a C-421 windshield frame and
retainers; a Harbor Freight Pneumatic Scraper with a polycarbonate
blade we made worked great. The Pro-Seal was built up 1/4" in places
and it pealed it off without hurting the aluminum. Blue Skys

Avery has this tool: http://www.averytools.com/pc-1055-80-sr-sealant-cutters.aspx
I've used sharpened plexiglass strips. There are phenolic and hard plastic scrapers for the job. There is a stripper called Polygone AG that slowly disolves proseal. Just finishing up a full strip and reseal of a Mooney wet wing tank. Used the Polygone to remove more difficult areas like rivet heads and in seams between spar and ribs/skins. However you do it, avoid metal scrapers, metal wire wheels, etc that will remove alclad layer.
