Did I ruin the table by using silicone? I was going to use wd40 but did
not have any. Or can I remove the silicone with paint thinner?

Actually, they have a surface grinder at work. WIll this get the table
true if it is not already? Will I have to take the whole thing apart to
get the tables to a surface grinder?

Oops. That wasn't a good idea. Best to get the silicone off. About the only
thing that really has much of a chance of doing that is a dry-cleaning solvent
such as trichloroethane or something similar. Look for the brand name
Carbo-Chlor at Ace or Tru-Value Hardware -- possibly at Home Depot, Lowes, or
Menards, too.
