  1. I believe soaking it in nail polish remover will make it go away, because it breaks it down slowly. I'm not sure if this will do damage to the sofa, but it shouldn't.
  2. yes, nail polish remover will take care of the super glue but your couch will be toast. why not just leave it be... super glue dries clear and you may cause more damage by trying to clean it... good luck
  3. The most popular choice is nail polish remover (works on hands, but it may damage upholstery), you can also get super glue removers.
  4. Usually there are removal tips on the package. Acetone nail polish remover is often recommended to loosen, but I'd test it on an inconspicuous area first, just to make sure that it's not going to stain the fabric more. You may very well be stuck with snipping it off.
  5. I would call a crafts supply store or a furniture store for the best advice.
  6. There is such a thing as supper glue remover. I once heard of a kid who superglued his eyes shut. Went to the emergency room and they got it off. Go to a store and ask for it.
  7. there's a solvent by superglue. Your sofa fabric will probably never be the same though.
