      Work in a well-ventilated area when using acetone. Open a window or remove the glue outdoors to prevent inhaling hazardous fumes.

      Pour a small amount of the acetone to an old rag or cotton pad. Thoroughly apply it to the spot of Crazy Glue until it begins to soften.

    • 3

      Lift the loosened glue with moderate pressure using the plastic scraper. Wrap the remainders in a paper towel and dispose of it.

      Wash the surface of the plastic with a cloth soaked in warm water to eliminate any remaining film or acetone.
