Superglue - help!

[Littlepeahead]

No laughing, but I just managed to superglue my thumb and finger together. I've managed to cut them apart but my hands are covered in glue and so is a glass table thanks to a faulty lid.

Any ideas how to remove it?

I've been told it's superglue, it will turn it back asif it hasn't set. But, I'm sure someone knows a propper cleaning agent to get it up with.

Hot soapy water, scrubbing and patience unfortunately is about as good as you're going to get.

It's ruined my manicure. And the thing it was supposed to stick - small curtain rod hook to conservatory frame - has just fallen down again.

Well as the manicure is ruined anyway... Nail Varnish Remover

Acetone, commonly found in nail polish remover, is a widely available solvent capable of softening cured cyanoacrylate.[19] Other solvents include Nitromethane, Dimethyl sulfoxide, and Methylene chloride, although the latter two of these solvents are toxic.[20] Gamma-butyrolactone may also be used to remove cured cyanoacrylate.[21] Commercial debonders are also available.[22]

+1. Nail varnish remover should shift it.

Slightly off-topic but I've just read "The Complete History of Glue"
I simply could'nt put it down.

If you are using nail varnish remover to shift it you need proper acetone type stuff, the newer synthetic type remover doesn't work.

Surely this should be a sticky thread

super when it works where it supposed too.. horrid when it everywhere else..
