Hmm. I have 2 hands which are now thinly coated in superglue, and I’m not quite sure how next to proceed. Scraping and plucking at the bits I could get off haven’t shown much results.
yeah another friend suggested a nail file.. which worked pretty well. the last few bits came off when i was washing the dishes and i turned the abrasive part of the sponge on my own fingers haha. thanks for the tip!
btw, apparently nail polish remover is a very good solvent - just that it’s very drying on the skin. ahhaa. the wonders of google.
Yeah unfortunately I’m not one of those girls who usually paints their nails (nor is my girlfriend) so there was no nailpolishremover to be found in the house!

Hallo Korea! I used to play with like UHU glue (the liquid kind, not the stick kind) but NEVER superglue. Superglue is scary.

Any ketone based liquid will do the trick (basically, anything that smells like nailpolish remover).
It generally sloughs off within a couple of days though :)
