I ordered both the 3M and the Mckanica silicone caulk remover to remove silicon caulk a prior owner of my RV slathered all over the seams. It was impossible to get the caulk off using mechanical methods, boy did I try. The area of the RV I was testing on was a seam between a painted metal flashing and the fiberglass side wall. I applied the 3m first letting it set overnight. Some of the silicon was loosened and with some work came off with a scraper but there was still a good deal of silicone left on the surface. It seamed to only act on the very outer layer of silicone. The paint on the metal flashing came off as well, not exactly what I wanted but the instructions warned that this may happen. At this point I decided that the 3M was not going to suffice. I just couldn't take the time to re-paint and do multiple applications. On to applying the Mckanica. The Mckanica is a gel and comes in a caulking tube. After squeezing a little bit out on a plastic tray I applied it to the same area which proved to be too much for the 3M. After a few hours I came back and wow not only did the Mckanica take off what was left after the 3M application but the areas which were untreated by the 3M but treated by Mckanica came completely clean. You could just wipe the silicone away with a cloth. On top of that the Mckanica did not remove the paint off of the metal flashing like the 3M did. I will be ordering more Mckanica for this project and saving the 3M for bathroom duty.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "3M Caulk Remover" are high quality item.
