Just a wild idea for removal of test socket from model

This is a technical issue that I have been kicking around for awhile.
Blowing a TT socket off of a model with air is usually only effective for
the first 1/2 of travel as the air then can escape. I have tried
injecting water but it is not much better and messy. My instincts tell me
a very low viscosity material like Playdoh, injected into the distal end
would push the socket off and be easily cleaned up and the Playdoh
recycled. Any thoughts?
