Safe Super Glue Remover And Effective Tips

By Lisa Cooper


Superglue sticks very fast and can be dangerous in case it spills. It is usually very strong and needs to be removed as quickly as possible. When it falls on the skin, the process of removal is tedious and painful. You will need a super glue remover alongside other tips to make the process safer and less painful.

Rub the spill off your skins as fast as possible. Do not allow it even a minute longer to cake. It is preferred that you rub the spill using a piece of cloth ensuring that it is not spread to other parts of the body. Use a wet cloth that prevents the spilled glue from drying. This way, it will not stick on your skin.

When the glue falls on your skin and other parts of the body, you need to use a different strategy. When it dries, try using your nails or sharp tweezers to peel it off. This method is only recommended if it does not come with pain. It should also not be used on sensitive areas and skins to prevent damage. Do not forcefully remove the superglue because the underlying tissues and skin will be damaged. In case of pain, medical assistance should be sort.

Soak the affected area in water to make it soft for removal. Water softens the adhesive, making removal easier and fast. Add some soap or detergent into the water and soak your finger or cover the affected area for a minute. Using a spatula or spoon, try to scoop it off the skin. You might repeat the procedure several times to completely remove it from your skin.

People with sensitive and soft skins or if the superglue has fallen on such an area are advised to use mineral spirits. They are very effective in loosening the skins and controlling damage. It takes time for this adhesive to soften and soak. This means dipping the finger or affected area several times. Do not be forceful but use gentle strokes and continuous soaking.

Acetone is an option for people with hard skins. Those with sensitive skins are supposed to use mineral spirits as discussed earlier. They will find acetone to be very irritating. Further, acetone should never be used on an open wound. The immediate remedy is to soften the area by soaking it in water. Adding vinegar will also help to loosen it. Rub the area with the acetone based nail polish remover. Cotton swab should not be used because it leads to a violent reaction.

Ordinary laundry detergent is also used on normal skins. The procedure is to soak the area in diluted detergent for a while before trying to scope it off. Soaking it several times will do the trick. Do not be forceful. Several attempts will give the desired results. Margarine is also used in softening the glue and removing superglue especially for people with a sensitive skin.

Be cautious when removing superglue from sensitive areas like lips and eye lids. Some of the safe remedies like water and saliva can work but only to the extent that they do not elicit pain or threaten to damage the affected areas. Seek medical attention as soon as possible to prevent permanent damage.
