Gluesticks

How do you get super glue off ?

I got some super glue on my hands. It doesn't come off. I just peel it off, but it there a faster way to get it off?

1. nail polish remover
2. You would need some type of solvent. Sometimes gasoline can work for this - just be careful!
3. Acetone (in some nail polish removers). You'll probably want to check the bottle. Or brake cleaner (my dad uses it for everything). Do not use WD-40.
4. Step 1 Do not attempt to tear or force apart the glue. This could rip your skin. Step 2 Apply acetone-based nail-polish remover to the area. The acetone breaks down the bond. Step 3 If there's a lot of glue on your skin, soak the skin in nail-polish remover to dissolve the bond. . Step 4 Clean the area with soap and water after removing the glue. Step 5 If you don't have nail-polish remover, soak the affected skin in warm, soapy water. . Step 6 Slowly roll the skin to work the bond apart as the warm water soaks through. Continue doing this until the skin is free of glue.
5. Acetone will work. Turpentine or a hard liquor might also work.
