Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of glue does this cleaner work on?

It is specifically designed for cyanoacrylate glue, commonly known as super glue.

How long should I leave the cleaner on the glue?

You should work quickly. Apply the cleaner, gently rub the hardened glue to soften it, and then immediately wipe away the residue. Avoid prolonged contact with the plastic.

Can this be used on painted surfaces?

It is not recommended for use on painted surfaces as it may damage or lift the paint. Always test on a small, hidden area first if attempting this.

Why is the bottle not filled to the top?

The bottle is intentionally not filled to 100% capacity to allow for air, which is necessary for the product to function correctly and prevent leakage.

What should I do if I spill the cleaner on my project?

Wipe up any excess immediately. If it has contacted the plastic for too long, gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and allow it to dry completely. Test in a small area first.

Is this product flammable?

Always follow safety guidelines for chemical products. Keep away from heat and open flames. Consult the product packaging for specific safety information.

How much cleaner should I use?

Use only enough to dampen a paper towel for targeted application. Avoid soaking the area.

Troubleshooting

Glue does not soften or remove easily.

Ensure you are using enough cleaner and rubbing gently but persistently. The glue may be too old or too thick to remove with a single application. Reapply if necessary, working quickly.

Plastic appears discolored or softened after use.

You have likely left the cleaner on the plastic for too long or used too much product. Immediately clean the area with a damp cloth (water only) and allow it to air dry. For future use, apply less product and work faster, testing on a scrap piece first.

Product seems to have evaporated quickly.

Ensure the bottle cap is tightly sealed after each use. Store upright in a cool environment.
