methyl ethyl ketone or mek for short.concentrate on silicone ONLY.mek as with acetone will mar a finish if too much is used.very volitile...NO OPEN FLAMES.the advantage of mek over acetone is the evaporation rate of mek is ten times that of acetone

Thanks everyone, I am sad to say I ended up ot using any of your replies. The silicone was on the back of the ring so I ended up shaving it down real close with a razor knife. Then there was still a slight film of it on the back of the ring. I found out that this is a great non slip surface! So I put the guage back in and because I Had an oversize hole to begin with this prevents it from moving arround. I have other guages that they tend to loosen up and then slide arround So I just put a film of silicone on these too, waited for them to dry and then installed. It works great as long as the film is not too thick.
