Best Answer

petrol with an acid (lemon or vinegar or battery acid) in it will soften the silicon. (break some of the bonds) talcum powder will abraid it if you rub it in with something soft (finger-tip). hope this helps. Don't sand it. or use anything that's harder than the surface or you will leave some marks.

Why silica gel show hygrocopic property?

Silica gel has a high specific surface area, and some silicon atoms atoms near the surface of silica gel have fewer than normal bonds to oxygen because of the surface itself. These silica atoms are attracted to water molecules because the combination of underbonded silicon atoms and water vapor can reduce its overall energy by interactions between with the underbonded silicon atoms and the oxygen atoms in water, which have unshared electron pairs.
