Zusammenfassung:	A tool and a method which can be used to remove sealant from a protruding fastener. The tool (100) comprises a shank (102) for connecting to a rotary drive and a body (104) disposed on the shank. The body (104) includes a cavity (106) with a working edge (108) for engaging the sealant when the cavity is urged about the fastener. The method for removing sealant from a protruding fastener comprises the alignment of the tool with a protruding fastener, followed by a progressive urging of the tool in the aligned direction towards the fastener, while rotating the tool such that the periphery of the sealant encapsulated fastener is encircled by a working edge.
