Removing super glue from a laminate top can be done effectively using ice, pressure, and specific cleaning agents as detailed below.
If the super glue is dry, the primary method involves making it brittle for easier removal.
Steps to Remove Dry Super Glue from Laminate
Follow these steps to tackle dried super glue on your laminate surface:
- Apply Ice: Place ice in a bag directly onto the dried super glue.
- Wait: Leave the ice on the glue for five minutes. This cold treatment helps make the glue brittle.
- Remove Chunks: Once brittle, the glue can often be removed in chunks by applying pressure with your fingers.
- Address Residue: For any remaining residue, use small amounts of acetone.
- Clean the Area: Finally, clean the treated area using a natural oil such as vinegar or peanut butter.
This process utilizes the properties of ice to weaken the adhesive bond, allowing for physical removal, followed by chemical treatment for stubborn remnants and a natural cleaner to finish.
