    Geordie, if I’m trying to get rid of silicon I use my sharpest wood chisel and some cleaning wipes. Plumb centre used to do the best but they’ve just changed packaging and I’m not sure if it’s the same ‘ingredients ‘ on the wipes. They were awesome, taking silicon off your hands etc like it was butter:)

    I’d listen to the cat. Those industrial hand wipes are awesome for shifting stuff like that.


    In small amounts anyway
     
  13. @Fog on the tyne this stuff is pretty decent, it starts to breakdown the silicone so it’s easier to scrape off

  16. Baufix stuff comes from Lidl and I’ve been pretty impressed with all baufix products I’ve used so far

  17. Have you made templates, so you can sell 'replacement' wooden bits to other karmann gypsy owners?

    Not sikaflex, it’s more like mastic
