| 74395 | 2002-08-28 04:44:00 | How do you remove superglue from skin (hands)? Isopropyl alcohol is not working.. Stupid Selly's "bonds instantly" grumble mutter. Sorry that this is so off topic, but I'm in agony here! |

| 74397 | 2002-08-28 04:56:00 | IPA won't work. Acetone (fingernail varnish remover) might. A quick look at google says superglue is good instead of surgical stitches, with the comment that it peels off on its own in 5-8 days. If you don't mind carrying around appendages for a week, that could be the painless way. ;-) One of the other matches included the hint "Don't apply superglue with your fingers". |

| 74399 | 2002-08-28 05:34:00 | This from a friend who knows: Supa Glue is designed to STICK and is very difficult to remove from most surfaces. Supa Glue remover is available from most leading Hardware stores, however on human skin it is often possible to remove it by working at it continuosly with moisturising cream. |

| 74400 | 2002-08-28 05:49:00 | Well, Considering I've used Acetone to remove 2 day old graffitti, I'd hope itd work | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 74401 | 2002-08-28 06:35:00 | I didn't stick my fingers together, luckily.. but I spilled some on them. Since its dried I've managed to peel some of it (or my skin, I'm not sure) off.. might go try that nailpolish remover ;) |

| 74403 | 2002-08-28 08:30:00 | One of the original uses for "super glue" years before it became available in retail shops was for making O rings from rubber O ring cord. You just put a drop on one end of the cord, pressed the ends together for a few seconds, and bingo, a custom built O ring. OR, you ended up with an O ring joining your fingers together. The only way to get that combination apart was someone adept with a razor blade. :) :) |

| 74404 | 2002-08-28 08:54:00 | i always thought super glue on skin felt kinda cool... ;) not that that's exactly what i do for kicks. no really. I don't. you can sand it off with a bit of sandpaper.... not too coarse though! something like 180 grade shoud be good. |
