Default Need help with some super glue issues!

Ok there are two issues I am having!

1. The dumbass who had this car prior to me superglued the s2000 badge on one side on the car... now that I want to remove it I don't know how without damaging the paint!! Any suggestions?

2. my friend accidently was supergluing the two pieces together and superglue fell on the car(her car not mine)... anything to remove it without messing up the paint? I would think this one is easier since its glue on the paint and its not something superglued onto the car.


Anything you guys can think of I would greatly appreciate it!!

Try using a clay bar with some soap and water. If that fails i would try some nail polish remover, but i would test a small area first to make sure it doesn't damage the paint. Good luck!

Thanks guys! Any suggestions on my Badge issue with the super glue? I have a feeling when I remove it I will need to get it painted cause I don't see another way of taking it out

Acetone works to remove SuperGlue.

BE VERY CAREFUL putting it on your car tho.. i would say dampen a cloth and tap it on to the spot. Should help.

Try using a fishing line steel leader. I can get you some at the next meet or even cut it for you. Acetone is not a good idea it will eat up the paint (think of your nails) wet sand the area with 1200-1600 grid wet sand paper and buff. Not 100% garantee though. Let me know.

I thought this post was going to be...

"I was gluing something back together, went to take a piss, and now my hand is glued to my dick"



How disappointing that its something meaningful to the S2000.
