Thanks. I've been looking for something to remove silicone as well. I'll give it a try.

It still takes a bit of elbow grease, but it does get it off without damaging the gelcoat. >From Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Mckanica-Caulk-3-Oz-Silicone/dp/B000PVT1P4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00 Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C&C 37+ East Greenwich, RI, USA ~~~~~~~_/)~~~~~~ On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 4:32 PM, Franklin Schenk via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: I am trying to reseal the windows on a C&C 29. The previous owner used Silicone and I would like to remove it and use the butyl tape. I read that carburetor cleaner works better than acetone. I am open to any suggestions. The spacing on the machine screws also appear to be very large. I was thinking about adding a few more screws at 5 to 6 inches apart.
