Hi Guys

Bit of a b@llache here ! Hope someone can help, may have been in similar situation.

Been sealing up our outside light boxes with gel yesterday and had quite a leakage, drops everywhere.
We didn't spot it until it was too late.

Tried sanding out this morning but not getting it fully out.

Any ideas, is there somme sort of solvent 'hopefully' ?

Thanks Sy

An old thread on here contains a hint of a method right at the end, but unfortunately the LTP product linked to (the links are obsolete) doesn't appear to exist any more. They seem to be products for tilers, so you might get help from Tilers Forum?

Edit: thinking about it - are the spots from the individual components of the gel, or are they spots of mixed gel as put in the boxes? I suspect the mixed gel will not respond to treatment the same as oil, so not sure the video below is relevant now!
