How to remove silicone residue from around sinks?

Answer

When you say silicone, I think of caulk. I always use Goof Off to remove things like glue, caulk, ink, paint, and so on. I find lots of uses for it around the house when I'm working on projects. They sell it at the Home Depot (any home center) for less than $5. The Goof Off will loosen the silicone a lot. You can also use a putty knife or razor blade and pliers to help remove it.
