Do you know how to remove the inner bead?
Looking at the photos, the beads in the second photo look like they are behind trim. Also looks like the inner bead has not been fitted properly.
There are a few different types of rubber bead, so you need to remove the glass to see what kind of bead that you have.

The external seal is likely to be one of these E gaskets

Internal one could be the same, or another E gasket, or possibly a Wedge gasket.
A sharp stiff scraper, glazing knife. remove the beads from the inside, remove the glass unit and see what's installed.

The sealing bead around my windows has perished / is peeling off in places and I want to fix it. I assumed it would be something I could buy on a roll and be an easy job but my searching hasn't yielded anything.
Does anyone know what the seal is made from? I thought it was a bead of sealant (put on with a gun) but the corners look like they are cut from a strip.
Both the interior and exterior beads should be white but thanks to the A2 they aren't...
