Re: Stus-List Remove silicone

[Josh Muckley via CnC-List]

I would add that you will have the best results and use the least about of
remover if you take the time to mechanically remove/peal as much of the
silicone as possible.  The 3M Adhesive Remover can them be used to just
remove the residue.

Anybody have any experience with the 3m adhesive remover and its effects on
other silicone products like the residue from dielectric grease or
Armour-All?  Even some kids toys are made from silicone gel (creepy
crawlers and splat balls).  They can leave a residue on the walls that is
impossible to clean or paint.

[Franklin Schenk via CnC-List]

Thanks.  I was told that nothing would remove silicone but apparently there are 
several products that will do the job.  Now all I need is someone to come to 
North Texas and do it for me.  LOL

3M makes a product that is specifically designed to remove silicone. Almost 
nothing else will do it. Unfortunately I’ve used up my supply and can’t recall 
the product name.

 

I learned about the stuff when rebuilding my A hatches, using Sika 295 as the 
adhesive. The SIKA won’t properly adhere to the hatch frame if there is any 
silicone residue (which there was, thanks to the PO). Perhaps the folks at Sika
