An old Mopar remote mirror I took apart had hardened black stuff in 4 spots of what I believe was fish tank sealer. I'm thinking it was used on the old metal frame aquariums as I recall. A pain to get the mirror off intact even with heat and a knife. Basically had to cut through it.
A newer aftermarket came right of with just a little heat though.
