     Just glob on plenty of the RTV and let it cure.  Then trim it to a 
     nice shape with an X-Acto or razor blade.  I you try to shape it 
     before it cures you will just make a mess.

Would it be impracticable to make a tool with a reverse-profile 
cutout, sorta like a router bit, that you could drag along the 
edge to "clean up" the bead afterwards? Don't know if spraying 
the tool w/silicone as a release agent would work either. Just 
a thought...
