How to remove super glue from any object
If soap and water don’t do the trick, acetone is the next step. A simple bottle of acetone-based nail polish remover and a cotton ball will suffice. Here’s how to do it…
Acetone is safe for any kitchen countertops whether they are made of laminate, marble, corian, quartz, or granite. Test the acetone on an unseen part of the surface first, to make sure it won’t discolor the area. Some surfaces, like finished granite, will require you to repair the finish after removing the glue.
Of course, the best way to avoid super glue damage is by not making a mess in the first place. Loctite super glues come with a variety of custom cap designs to help with precise, controlled, and mess free application.
