You should expect to have to remove some old sealant -- so be sure to have something to scrub it off.

I used a 3M Tapered Bristle Disc,2 In Dia,80G - Abrasive Bristle Disc-Cup Shaped - 6RX77|18732 - Grainger Industrial Supply

on a air tool -- but a cordless drill would work as well.

I'm sure it or something similar can be found locally.
