Must be heat-damage from the catalytic reaction against the moisture on my skin..

Are you sure acetone dissolves super glue ?

Post by: pixelpusher on Wed, 03 October 2018, 10:19:24: acetone does indeed dissolve superglue. Had a bad incident with glued fingers a few years back. Also, I've used my wife's fingernail polish remover. Same stuff, less burny

If it has soaked through fabric however, it is stuck.

I have also managed to spill glue on a new pair of pants within the first five minutes of wearing them for the first time.
I've even got a few superglue droplets on the pants that I wear right now ... but I wear these only at home.

Post by: pixelpusher on Wed, 03 October 2018, 15:23:57: Everything I read online said it would take patience and repeated cleanings, but acetone should get it out. You have to let the glue dry and cure. Then work at the top layer with acetone a few times to get as much off as you can. Then soak overnight in cold water, treat with detergent (scrubbing at it again) and launder like normal. Of course, there's a good chance the acetone will mess up your shirt :(
