Quarter Glass Frame Reuse?

My right side quarter glass got broken in the car wash unknown to me. I ordered the new glass but it came without the frame I removed the broken glass and frame and cannot for the life of me get the old broken pieces off the rubber frame. Anyone have any experience with this issue? Any ideas what is holding the glass to the frame? Some type industrial strength glue? Any help would be immensely appreciated!

Removal and install quarter glass

As far as I know, you should be able to use acetone to remove the old adhesive. Try a small spot to make sure the acetone doesnt damage the rubber. The new windows are usually secured in (until it cures) with urethane, but almost any body shop can advise you better as to which brand is best.
