When I was an intern at ADC/Magnetic Controls Company ten or twelve years 
ago, we had some pretty nasty solvents for looking inside of and 
"evaluating" competitors products.  

I think there was one company who made the solvents, but they had several 
products depending on what you wanted to remove.  I'm sorry but I don't 
know the name of the company.  That wasn't directly my project.  Silicone 
sounds really difficult if not impossible.  And by now the EPA (and 
possibly with good reason, although certainly not always) has probably 
banned their use.

Good luck!
