Silicon remover? :whistle:

Haha,you might be right there,i've just had the bellhousing section soaking in pure acetone for an hour and it's not touched the stuff.Anybody got any good suggestions how to get this horrible crap off?

HI!... "Goof off". Most hardware stores or Home Depot carry it.

:ohmy: No aceton. Just a good modelist knife and a metalic brush.

Acetone doesn't touch silicone. You can buy stuff in DIY stores for removing silicone sealant from baths etc - that is what stevieg was alluding to. Look near the bathroom silicone sealant.
Here's an example at good ole' Screwfix

I don't know how we got from my "acetyl cure silcone" (i.e silicone sealant that smells of vinegar (acetic acid) as it cures) to Stingray's "Aceton" :huh:

I've got most of it off with a scalpel,so time to do a bit of experimentation now,on a few sites and forums people have claimed that WD40 works well to soften it up and then wire brush it off,i'll try that first.
