There is a specific remover for silicon. A few people were advertising it on Ebay not so long ago. I think it was quite cheap

Some while ago I used some stuff called Silstrip came from a firm in Cheshire.You had to wash the silicon clean and dry it but it worked very well.
Try a google search or ebay.
