Bill,

A chemical engineer that I work with thinks that a solution of lye (Draino) and water will soften the silicon, without damaging the glass or metal. I don't know the concentration that you will need, so you may want to experiment on the side that is broken. The lye will strip the paint off the metal.

If you use lye, make sure you use rubber gloves, face shield, proper clothing, take all the safety precautions, and have fresh water and vinegar close by (vinegar is acidic and will neutralize the lye). Lye will strip off skin just as fast as paint.

Good luck.

Dave
