Does anyone have an easy solution to removing old silicone?

Pamela Anderson would be the best person to ask about silicone  ;D

Try clean new razor blades and soapy water

IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO REMOVE IT FROM! A WIRE BRUSH ON A DRILL WITH LIGHT PRESSURE WORKS GREAT FOR REMOVING IT FROM STEEL OR ALUMINUM (BE CAREFULL WITH ALUMINUM). i'VE ALSO USED GASOLINE ON A RAG (WEAR GLOVES)  ;D

All I can say is DOW CORNING® 3527 silicone release agent...  just falls off  ;D

but clean up well if you want anything to stick again  :D :D :D

GAW- I used "Goof Off" it's an adhesive removal you can buy @ Home Cheapo, once you get the majority of the sillycorn off, you can use goof off for the film that's left.

Thanks all for the suggestions but I've got the job done...  Lighter Fluid and a match works pretty good too!   >:D
