Yes. But this is 20-20 hindsight:
First, wrap the connection with Scotch 88, turned with sticky side out.
Next apply seal. I use Scotch 2228. Finally, wrap with Scotch 88 in normal
manner. Then to remove, cut through to the inner tape and the whole
dressing can be pulled off. I usually cut down to the connector, then
complete the cut after pulling the tape away from the connector.
If seal was applied directly, I would cut coax flush with the connector and
use pliers to remove the connector. From there, I would use WD40 and a
brush to remove the seal. If that was unsatisfactory, there is always
naphtha, acetone and lacquer thinner (MEK) to try, but these may damage the
connector.
