If you happen to know any phone guys out there get them to get you a bottle of D-gel. This is what they use when working on jelly filled cables. They sheath the cable back and then have this god awful mess of jelly to keep any water out. The D-gel applied on a rag takes the jelly off the cable. I used it on my wifes suburban and it worked good. If its real bad get a can of Magnathene. The two together didnt damage the paint on my rig and had it looking new again. Good luck!
