I've had very good success using PPG's  DX330 to remove silicones.

I asked the professionals that did my TR3 what they
used.  Although there
are certainly other flaws (as I expected from a cheap
paint job), there are
no fish eyes.  Evidently it works as well for them as it
does for me.

Of course, it's no substitute for good surface preparation
otherwise.  As I
learned many years ago, you can sand, and wire brush, and
media blast, and
still not get all the silicone off.  But when you think you
have the surface
absolutely clean, take a clean rag dampened with Arcyli-clean
and wipe it
down.  The rag will be dirty.  Repeat until the rag is clean.
