Easy and effective ways to get rid of superglue residue
SSPDaily has prepared a selection of tips that will help you get rid of superglue from your hands without any hassle. If the glue accidentally gets on your skin or you need to wash off its residue, these methods will come to the rescue.
Soak in warm water
To remove superglue from your hands, immerse them in warm water and soap for 5-10 minutes. Warm water softens the adhesive, making it easier to peel off. After soaking, gently try to remove the glue from the skin.
Petroleum jelly
Use petroleum jelly or vegetable oil to remove superglue from your hands. Apply a large amount of the product to the area with the glue and leave it on for a few minutes. Then use a sponge to gently remove the adhesive. Vaseline breaks the bond between the adhesive and the skin, making it easier to remove without pain or damage.
Citrus juice
Squeeze a lemon or orange and apply the juice to the area with the glue. The natural acidity of citrus fruits dissolves the superglue bond, making it easier to remove. After the glue has delaminated, gently peel it off the skin.
