Silly Putty is a silicone polymer that was originally marketed as a children's toy. It has unusual characteristics, such as being able to be molded and retain its shape, that have made it an extremely popular product. But, sometimes Silly Putty can get stuck in carpet, blankets, or even hair and needs to be safely removed. Thus, it is essential to learn properly dissolve and dispose of Silly Putty. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions


1. Pick up all the pieces of Silly Putty that can easily be removed and do not need to be dissolved.


2. Pour Goo Gone or WD-40 onto the area affected with Silly Putty. Apply enough of the Goo Gone or WD-40 to completely cover the affected area. Wait five minutes for the Goo Gone or WD-40 to completely have its effect. Be patient and do not rush into removing the Goo Gone or WD-40. Removing the product early will lower the efficiency with which they dissolve Silly Putty.


3. Take a wet rage and gently rub the affected area until the Silly Putty begins to dissolve. After a while, you should begin to see the Silly Putty begin to dissolve. You may have to re-wet the cloth after a few minutes of rubbing.

5. Keep clear of the affected area after all the Silly Putty has been removed. Do not allow children or pets to walk on the area until it has completely dried.
