I like your idea but one problem i have , i had a second outside door taken out as we had New inner double glazed door & side widows put in. I have this same issue of the silicone but it's not on brick it's on sandstone , i have no clue how to remove it as the sandstone will be highly marked if i did this . It's a block of sandstone sides and across the top and looks a mess and a light colour so i don't want to use a chemical as it might discolour it too.
Two things I would try... If the sandstone is mostly flat I would use a window scraper with a razor sharp blade to try and remove as much as possible keeping the angle as flat to the sandstone as possible
Or
Buy a rubber eraser wheel from Amazon that goes in a drill and see how that goes. You will need good drill control for this method.
Both methods together could be good if the silicone is quite thick. Remove as much as possible with the blade then use the rubber eraser wheel.
Obviously I've never tried this before so can't guarantee it will work but thats what I would try.
@@danielkelly987 Thank you Daniel for you reply , great idea even better the rubber eraser wheel may give that one a go. Thank you so much for your advice
@@charlesforeman9438 no problem, let me know how it goes 👍
@@danielkelly987 Thank you i will give it a go the weekend thanks Daniel
Try a non metal brush head drill attachment. I think they are a fiberglass or some such material, its still abrasive but its NOT METAL.
Didn't work for me just created a mess
