[Barry Taylor]

Anyone have any idea how to get this stuff off clothes. Its gone dry now. Coats been washed half a dozen times and its still there. Tried sticky stuff remover etc and nowt works.

You can get gun cleaner but I'm not sure how it does with cured foam nor clothing .

Acetone. Saved my butt when I trod some into the landing carpet.

You could try one of the "foam eater" products that the likes of screwfix do.

Just as an aside, I've just removed a saniflow that performed faultlessly for 10 years. Is it time to remove the saniflow entry from the humour section?

(Actually, that would be a huge shame as it's such an entertaining read but I think they're not as bad as Peter made out).

I have smears of silicone on my overalls, I wonder if silicone remover would get it off without damaging the fabric?

[Lobster]

Whether it would remove it I dunno (I don't find it particularly effective; but I doubt it would harm the fabric. Whatever it is, it seems relatively innoccuous stuff - has to be so it doesn't damage a plastic bath.

Dunno, but the Darwin Awards item needs some looking at.
