Tested cyclomethicone as a barrier for cleaning using distilled water... Red paint was removed in test spot so the method was halted. 91% also removed paint. Tested ecosurf with distilled water on the tide line after the area was saturated with cyclomethicone. The area was exposed to heat with an air blower. 91% isopropyl alcohol and cyclomethicone were used to clear. No visible change in timeline. Same method with the addition of ecosurf to distilled water resulted in an area that was overcleaned along the edge of the silk.All pigments are water soluble tested green, brown, gold, blue. 91%%% alcohol.
