They have an induction hob and the hob has been bonded to the work top
at either side. Apparently its not silicon.

Any ideas on how to loosen the bond to remove the hob.

My understanding is hob has a metal lip that attaches to the worktop at
the sides.
The worktop is granite. Any prising to release it would crack the glass
hob.


FWIW, our induction hob is not fastened down at all. It's just very heavy ...


The aperture I made in my workshop for the electric hob ended up being
a tight interference fit. No sealant was used, but those that come
afterwards might think otherwise.
