What to do if you get superglue on your hands: first aid
30.07.2023 13:04
Glue with the prefix "super" is a rather insidious thing. This will be confirmed to you by everyone who has ever had to deal with it.
Its supernatural ability to firmly bond various types of materials can have a negative impact on your hands - provided that the glue gets on them, which, unfortunately, is not so rare.
Let's quickly find out how to remove glue stains from your hands without harming your skin.
Fat
The fat softens the hardened crust and lifts it off the skin, so all you need to do is apply it to the skin and rub it in gently for about 15 minutes.
Important: when we say “fat,” we don’t mean that specifically: it could be any fatty substance, like hand cream or even olive oil.
Alcohol
If you have pure alcohol on hand, soak a cotton pad in it and make an 8-minute compress.
After the specified time, clean your hands from the softened cyanoacrylate.
Please note: vinegar has the same effect, but in this case there is a high probability that irritation will remain on the skin.
