Removing silicone damping fluid


I spilled some silicone damping fluid from my tone arm onto part of my turntable. What is the safety way to remove it?  The web says mineral spirits, but I thought I would ask first. 
Thank you.

I do not think there is any solvent for silicon fluids.

On silicon oil, I have used the most concentrated Dawn dish detergent I could find. Apply full strength, let it sit for a while and wash off with water, repeat if necessary. At least you aren't using any solvents that could ruin your TT.
