That is exactly my objection to Aviation Form-A-Gasket; and one of the
reasons I like Hylomar so much.  It will come off easily even decades after
being applied; while as you've discovered, classic "non hardening" Permatex
gets hard as a rock over time.

BTW, Loctite 'Chisel Gasket Remover' will slowly soften the Form-A-Gasket.
It makes the job a little easier, but no faster because you have to spray it
on, wait for it to soften the surface layer, then scrape away the softened
gasket/sealer and repeat for the next layer.
