Would DD and HP like to share how to properly prep? Also, am I right in thinking that I should pull the stock seal around the sunroof off?

From my non-engineering perspective, it just needs to be squeaky clean. Any oils, dust, dirt, etc will eventually foul the bond. Clean out any loose debris, etc. as much as possible, particularly on surfaces where you plan to put the sealer. If exterior painted surface, may want to even use polishing compound or similar to get any waxes off. A roughed up surface would help, too. Or maybe even take off all the paint, and then paint over the finished, sealed work; but this is probably overkill for a stinkin' race car. Use alchohol or such to lastly clean the surfaces, just before you apply the sealer. Finishing the cleanup 2 weeks before you apply the sealer is not a good practice.
