Precautions And Warnings
Do not tear the skin off with force or pick at it, as this might harm the skin and develop a painful blister. Never use sharp objects, such as razors, nail filers, blades, or knives, to remove nail glue. Peeling off the skin is not recommended if you have a lot of glue on your hands or sensitive skin. Touching wet glue will spread it even further. Hence, it is best to wait until the adhesive has dried before removing it. Grab the edges of the dry glue with your fingertips or tweezers and pull it away carefully. If you cannot get a hold of the edge, rub it with a nail file or buffer to loosen it up.
If your skin is broken, chapped, or inflamed, do not use any strong cleansers or abrasives to remove super glue. Instead, you can follow these steps: Will vinegar remove nail glue? Yes, vinegar may soften and remove nail glue due to its acidic nature. Mix white vinegar with water and soak a cotton ball in it. Dab the cotton ball on the glue till it starts to soften.
