Update: So today I tackled one fender well. Here are the tools I used.
I removed the fender trim (3 screws on mine) . I applied the lift off with a rag to the old sealant on the MH side. 3 min. later I carefully scraped most of it off using a razor blade. You can use a plastic scraper too. I removed the remainder with a rag and turps. I only used the turps on the fender flair itself. Elbow grease and patients is necessary here.
I washed all surfaces. I applied a generous bead of the silicone (Home Depot) to the inside rim making sure enough silicon was applied so that it would contact the MH. Then I reattached the fender flair with the original 3 screws and wiped off any extra sealant. I pressed against the flair to insure good contact. I finished up with paste waxing around the area to restore any wax that may have been removed.
Total time 1 hour.
