Better ways to paint Platsil Gel 10 ?
Howdy y'all!
I'm having some difficulties with painting Platsil Gel 10, I was recommended as a cheap solution to buy regular oil colors mixed with silicone. To thin it out I used a small bottle of chemical clean heptane/gasoline. But I'm not satisfied with the look,the substance is to sticky (see the picture)
Any other ideas or ways to get a persistent paintjob done over platsil gel 10 silicone? would be greatly appreciated

Doug, just to say I am really liking the d-limonene. Seems to work very well, and now my workroom smells pleasantly of oranges! Thanks.
