- Apply hot to warm compress to the affected area for atleast a minute. Heat application is noted to work well in removing adhesives from the skin.
- Rub the skin with a hand lotion and wait as it slowly peels the Super Glue stuck on the body part.
- Another way to get rid of Super Glue off the skin is to apply petroleum jelly.
- Margarine or vegetable oil may be rubbed repeatedly on the area of affectation in order for the glue to be peeled away.
