Subject: [TN] Solvent for RTV738


Hi, TechNetters,

I am trying to find a solvent for removing 3M's RTV 738 that has been used
for bonding components to a number of boards, or to each other. Any
suggestions?

I have tried 3M themselves and they have no solvent of their own apart from
"Citrus Base Adhesive Remover" that 'may soften' it enough to peel it off,
but this seems pretty indefinite.

Thanks in hope
