Any tips on removing 100% silicone from vinyl siding? I saw from previous posts there is something available at Home Depot.

DAP make a product called "Caulk Be Gone" and I think 3M make a caulk remover. Probably available at Home Depot.

Hmm, its not caulk, its 100% clear silicone but it might work.

Sorry - I thought you meant silicone caulking.
And Google calls it caulking, even when you ask how to remove silicone.

3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner (part no. 051135) might do the trick. Most part stores that carry auto paint have it. I use it all the time for a variety of things, works great

Just be careful, Jeff, with "whatever" remover, that it doesn't attack the vinyl siding.

I doubt that it will; but a word to the wise.....
