The red tape would probably hold the tape but I really like the idea of using the aluminum pan, after think on this for a few minutes the only thing I would add would be to place some holes in the pan so the poultice could dry and work properly

Would that red tape from SCC help to hold the plastic on the wall?

Anthony,

I use a stripper from Aldon Chemicals called Premium Stripper it comes in a jell like consistency and works well when making a poultice. You can probably find something similar locally. I use a disposable aluminum baking pan to cover the poultice. Inside the pan I use an absorbent roll and place it along the bottom, like the rolls used to contain a spill. Tape it to the wall and you should be good to go.

Agreed – this is a possibility- My issue is how to place it on the wall though- The solvent will work its way through the tape needed to hold the plastic on the wall

Anthony,

I think you may need to make a poultice using methylene chloride to remove the rest of the silicone. Mix up your poultice using DE powder and the Methylene Chlorides into a paste like you would any other poultice and cover the spot completely. Be sure to cover the poultice with plastic and make sure NO one gets into this poultice. Put some small holes into the plastics so the poultice and dry. Let the poultice work for at least 24 to 36 hour and then remove it . Clean the area using a neutral cleaner. Let the surface dry , this could take a day or two, with any luck when you return the stain will be gone.

Caution, if there are children, pets, or the area is open to the general public be sure to cover the poultice completely where no one can get into the poultice.
