Removing superglue from a neck seam ?
« on: November 20, 2019, 12:34:43 PM »
Hi all. Quick question. I received some ponies that I ordered today, and one of the ponies has had her head removed from the prior owner. It was super glued back on and has left a big streak down her back and on her side.  Is there an easy way to remove the super glue from her?  She is a more valuable pony, and I want to have a cleaned up. I don’t know how to remove it though without damaging the plastic

Acetone?

I’m gonna try it, but rubbing alcohol didn’t work. :(

Yeah, acetone is your best bet. Rubbing alcohol doesn't do anything to superglue, unfortunately.

Just be careful around any symbols/eyes/etc. because acetone will definitely remove them!

I hope you can clean her up. Which pony is it if I may ask?

I'd also have to say pure acetone. But be gentle and very very very very careful with how much pressure you put on the plastic, because acetone can remove chunks of plastic!
