    I recently had a small tube of super glue explode. I got some on my truck paint. Any suggestions on how to remove. I've tried nail polish remover it worked ok but left some marks. I tried paint thinner and goo gone but they didn't work at all.

    Use a hair dryer to heat the glue residue up and see if it rubs off more easily with the Goo Gone?

    Have it a shot. Very slow progress. Patience is slowly going away. Lol. I'll keep trying.

    Don't use any harsh chemicals. Use heat and take your time.

    Make sure all that paint thinner has been washed off.

    I used a solution for super glue from Amazon years ago for upholstery and it changes the glue back to liquid. Wipe off. Works well

    Try a plastic razor blade scraper.

    Last night I was able to get all the glue removed. I used a hairdryer and nail polish remover. It left some small marks but should be able to buff them out. Thanks for all the help.
