- On most hard surface floors, silly putty can be removed by gently scraping, using a dull-edged knife, spatula, plastic credit card, etc. (Silly putty, even when dried, remains fairly pliable and can often times be pulled from the surface.)
- Amyl acetate (banana oil) and acetone will soften any remaining residues of silly putty. However, amyl acetate is milder than acetone so might be a better choice on wood surfaces. Proceed with caution and use very sparingly in order not to damage the surface.
CAUTIONS:
- Always pretest each cleaning agent on an inconspicuous area first to determine colorfastness.
- When using caustic, toxic, aromatic or flammable cleaning solutions, be certain to provide for adequate ventilation. Do not have an open flame near flammable cleaning solutions. Wear rubber gloves.
