If it was chemicals, I think it would still be soft.


Some plastics absorb chemicals, especially colorants *, and never get soft
at all. If it was softened by a solvent, once the aromatics dried, it would
become hard again.

*Rit dye works especially well with nylon.


The OP did state (first thread) before, that he used a chemical in
'06. The product he used did have Acetone (and trade secrets). He
cleaned over spray of stain off the siding.

I'm not certain the OP cleaned off the product he used, but let it set
and dry. It is clear, so and over sight?
