Is there anything that dissolves Silicone glue?
I am re-mounting my new GPS Speedo and the previous installer used silicone glue to mount it with. Subsequently I have glue on my powdercoated trim ring that I need to get off without messing up the finish. I have carved it down with a razor knife but need to go further. Any good solution that will remove this stuff?
Thanks - Ray

I have used acetone on all my powercoated parts. My friend owns a powercoating business and that is what he uses to clean the tape residue off the new parts he does.

Raypanic ,
If you use your thumb and press a bit you can sometimes roll the RTV off a slippery surface such as power coating. Takes some elbow grease, but I have done it. On a trim ring that wouldnt be that much work.
Good luck, let us know what works..
