1204 - Using WD 40 to Remove Super Glue

[seedeebun]

Dude thank you! I was searching for a way to remove super glue without using acetone as it is too aggressive for painted surfaces. This worked incredibly well.

Off topic. But I just wanted to say, thank you so much for introducing me to Zinc Sulfate for super caps. That stuff is pure magic. Definitely some battery chemistry happening, I'm not far off from lithium energy density! Even just using grafoil on it's own with that stuff is crazy powerful!

You're adorable, enthusiastic and a great speaker!

I was trimming a spruce tree and I got the sap on my hands and mobile phone. In desperation I tried wd40 and it worked like a charm.

I also use WD-40 to remove stickers from automotive parts. If you have an old sticker on your vehicle that you want to remove then just spray the sticker with WD-40, let it sit then get a credit card or plastic scraper and keep applying WD-40 as you are scraping and pulling the sticker off. Then come back with Alcohol to clean off the glue and put some wax over the spot where the sticker was and your are done.

This is interesting!
It took them 40 attempts to get their water displacing formula to work, but on the 40th attempt, they got it right in a big way. WD-40 Multi Use Product was born. WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, 40th formula

Brilliant little tip Luke 👏thanks mate 👍.

WD40 also removes silicon sealant. Plumbers recommend it for cleaning away old silicon sealant before replacing it on sinks and bathroom fittings.

WD-40 has so many uses, I couldn't list them all 🤣👍

Hey Luke, repeat this process with soapy water or shaving cream and a cheap shaving razor. I use this technique for getting super glue from my fingers, feels weird but it really works mate x

Nice one buddy! I’m currently to get super glue off a watch strap. Gonna try this! 👍🏻👍🏻

[TophMajora]

Dude I love your enthusiasm

Thanks for posting this I'm going to try this on my Fitbit. I used Krazy glue on the strap because it separated from the mechanism that clips onto the Fitbit. Now the strap is broken and I can't replace it because the glue is stuck on the mechanism and the Fitbit. Hopefully it work enough for me to be able to get a wedge in their and separating them. Thank you

Thank You so much for the great video!

Anything sticky wd40 works on to kill the sticky! Chewing gum, glue, gripfill adhesive everything, use the wd40 and then wash it with fairy liquid 😎👍

[ruthcormack]

I find soaking sticky labels in IPA works quite well also.

[sarangabora]

Looks great... Can I use it on G-10 handle of my knife to remove superglue?

[Buzzhumma]

The formula 40 has a combination of solvents so best to test on inconspicuous place first if the surface is valued etc a fridge !
