major bummer help!!

[spaceman1964]

swis has done it this time!  while not thinking at all, swis takes the last of his red hot 30s and gives them an ice bath. (no gak problems as of yet) while filtering, he thinks "shit, this waters red".  as you have guessed and probably laughed while thinking "idiot", he did not take off that tasty candy coating.  he went ahead and boiled down, but the shit wont dry....  more like some weird cake frosting.  can this be salvaged?  please dont flame swis, cause he knows he has been an idiot already. can some kind bee please help!?

Rinse with cold, dry acetone.

swis tried a dry acetone wash, but very little red was removed.  since the heet pull was done, the red is bound to the pfed (no shit swis!)  anyways, can the push/pull be done with the red still there?  i am not worried about yield loss or a bit dirty at this point.  dont want to just toss this mess!

red will not follow the A/B
dry it to a paste and mix in sodium carbonate, at least equal in volume, more if pillmass is wet. add xylene or toluene
 to cover it at least one inch, heat to a boil stirring continuously, filter it hot and repeat with a smaller portion of the same non polar. then evaporate it in front of a fan
try this sometime
