You are almost certainly not picking up pure Silicon, the element, you are
picking up a compound of Silicon, which could even be glass, as in, do you use
your presses to laminate rigid boards, which have glass fiber reinforcing
them??

 > 2. Will these chemicals also remove the Entek OSP coating?
  >>
The answer to this simply cannot be determined until you discover which
compounds of Silicon you have present.  If you have glass present, you will
likely have to use compounds to remove the glass that will affect the OSP,
however, if, as Joe Fjelstad suggested, the compounds are organic Silicon
compounds, Silicones, (think Carol Doda, if you are old enough) then organic
solvents MAY remove them, and not effect the OSP.
