Because that nail polish remover has a nber of other ingredients other than acetone, the acetone will evaporate off leaving water and other stuff misleading you into thinking the solvent is still there. I have experienced this when using nail polish removing pads that become less effective after a minute or so, yet they still feel damp, because the acetone is gone but water remains.
Yes only acetone will remove superglue but in confined space like a door lock this is not viable (won't work) superglue will turn to liquid at a certain temp blowtorch (300°c+) use acetone afterwards to clear what residue is left.
Any hardware store or pharmacy should/ will supply acetone I got mine from boots pharmacy make sure its 100% pure or won't work like acetone should also amazon sell 100% pure acetone my friend.
It’s it safe to use acetone on clothing? as in will it bleach or leave a discoloured patch? I had superglue spill all over my jumper sleeve at my workplace and can barely bend my arm in it
My project was to glue magnets in a ceramic dish to turn it into a pin cushion. The first one set, but as I was getting the second one set, the first one was trying to pull forward to the other, causing the ceramic to crack. Luckily I realized this before the second magnet was set, and 100% acetone nail polish remover melted away the excess glue. However, the first magnet is set and I can’t get it removed. I tried to soak the area with the acetone, but eventually it evaporated. Anyone have any tricks or advice?
I've got a strange application I'm going to try this on. I have really high end 1/18 diecast model and the box has what looks like glue or super glue sort of spread out in a two inch or so area. I tried rubbing alcohol and WD40 but they had no effect. So I'm getting some Ace tone, no wait that's KISS, I'm getting some acetone and I have an old box that I'll test the sturdiness of the plastic window before applying it to the actual box. It's worth a try, it'd be nice to remove that, the whole presentation in the box would improve as well as the resale value. Thanks
@@HacksbyDad Thanks, I tested some on an old empty diecast car box, and it didn't melt through, but it also didn't take off whatever it is that's on it. That's life, it's not a big deal, it was worth a try. The car inside is perfect so that's the main thing.
@@rockpie.iso.tar.bz2 Almost certainly. They contain plastic and acetone will dissolve some adhesives That being said it doesn't happen instantly. I used acetone on a cotton pad to take the logo off of computer mouse recently. Using light pressure and dabbing, and allowing to dry in-between. If you press hard and keep it wet acetone will melt ABS plastic.
Put Vaseline on just about anything that is bonded with superglue and I’ve had very good results. I usually wait about ten minutes before easily getting the glue off whatever I need to remove the glue from
Let's make a video that shows 5 common household products that we already know are not going to work instead of making a 30 second video that simply shows acetone dissolving the glue. No wonder I stopped speaking with my Dad years ago. How stupid.
Thanks! You may have known it but many others and I did not know. I compiled the list of 5 from the results of a Google search. Call the video stupid all you want… 250k views is paying for a nice vacation for me and my wife. 😎
@@HacksbyDad Glad to hear that! I had no idea TH-cam actually paid people anymore. That's a breath of fresh air. I apologize for being such a Debbie Downer.
How about super glue on plastic? I have a vintage Barbie playsets I'd like to restore who has some spots of super glue here and there plus some glued joints I'd like to remove.

Nicely done! Super helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for the video. Here’s $100. No change.

the issue is , acetone will take off paint too. and I have glue on something that's painted and need to get it off.
Sorry... wish I could help, but I don't have a solution for your situation.
The answer for you is the dental floss trick 😁
6 months later... "no change"
😂
I like how your tackled the myth...
Acetone is a household product if your a female and do nails. So yes it’s available at the store
It's also a household product if you're a man with a garage. It's an incredibly useful and common solvent.
*you're
Pure acetone is the mystery removal.
Do i need to use sandpaper or steel wool for skinning remove it or just leaving it without scraping?
Yes change.
IPA 🍺🍻 had me rolling! 😂😅
Yeah. A six-pack of IPA will definitely bring a change.
While waiting for acetone to react, hell yeah, a 6 pack of IPA does bring a change!
ET: “Phone Home”
Hack By Dad: “No Change “
ET was stuck on Earth when he ask Hack by Dad for spare change.
Where can I buy pure acetone? Thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Any hardware store or pharmacy should/ will supply acetone I got mine from boots pharmacy make sure its 100% pure or won't work like acetone should also amazon sell 100% pure acetone my friend.
Check around where they sell nail polish as it is the best salon strength nail polish remover.
one of the best Dad jokes on youtube
Thanks! 😎

def don't use acetone in crotch area of clothing ... jus' sayin'
Do a test area. It shouldn't maybe on black . I say this bc I've spilled it while doing my nails a bunch of times lol
Does acetone dissolve superglue faster than abs plastic?
Any vegetable oil will soften and remove CA glue. Some brands state this on the package.
Thanks! I'll give it a try.
100% acetone just melts the super glue away it’s great
Save yourself & let me fast forward to the only product that was able to clean up or dissolve super glue, crazy glue is, Acetone (nail polish remover)
Hey… you’re going to mess up the view duration and retention metrics! LOL
Very informative, thank you.
Wd40 might work faster than the acetone
Gotta remove superglue from a silicone toy. I wonder if it attacks the silicone too.
Acetone will most definitely dissolve it, like it wasn't even there.
Can I easily open the glued electronic product (i.e Bluetooth speaker) with acetone?
did you try?

Careful… I believe acetone eats through many plastics.

wow thanks for the mystery product tip
You’re welcome!
😎
It works for metal, but the moment you put it on a surface with a finish, it eats away at it. What are solutions for things with paint or gloss on it?
Sorry... I don't know. I'll do some research and see what I can find. Thanks. 😎
You should have tested ground lamb and cotton candy. Works great
Legend says with the inflation was able to turn in the cans for recycling & bought life time supply of Super Glue”
Can i use this on my laptop? Or will it destroy the paint? Its a plastic laptop
No change
@@graymoon3000 It worked 😂and it didnt destroy the paint of my laptop nor have any scratches while scrubbing the glue off with my finger 😅😅

Where to buy acetone?
Sadly on the plastic surface I cannot use acetone. But I heard about WD-40 maybe my solver
Good luck! 🤞😎

Nail polish remover actually works if you scrub a bit
if you get super glue on your hand and it drys up put some salt in some water put your hand in it and peel off the super glue
Thx dude. Some DIYer's should *never* be allowed near super glue. 🤦♀️
👍😎
does acetone affects plastic integrity?
Depends on the plastic, but yes it can.
@@Hal_Beep-Boop are phones affected?

Wtf do you mean ??? Acetone IS a household product.
Put Vaseline on just about anything that is bonded with superglue and I’ve had very good results. I usually wait about ten minutes before easily getting the glue off whatever I need to remove the glue from
Interesting. I just might give it a try. Thanks!
Take it to the dry cleaners ,They might be able to get it off.
I will try as I've done everything already nothing change on a jeans with super glue
