Wash your hands with soap in real hot water.....it will come off.

I tried washing my hands and scrubbing my fingers but it would not budge. :) I woke up this morning and it was gone. LOL

Use warm water and soap. Use brush to help the removal. You have to do this repeatedly. You would notice that slowly, the dried super glue is coming off. Do not use your bare hand to eat food. Better use spoon or other cutlery. This is to avoid any part of the super glue getting into your body.

I tried scrubbing and picking at it. It was still there when I went to bed but when I woke up it was gone. :) Thanks for the advice. :) mahmah

Once it dries, I briskly rub the affected finger against each other, or maybe with my other hand, & it comes off that way. I have not needed anything special like nail polish remover or anything like that. Just don't rub TOO hard. Oh - yeah - you can also use a fingernail to lift up the edge to start things going.

I was picking at it for hours. It was still there when I went to bed. I even tried scrubbing it. I woke up this morning and it was gone though so no worries. :)

Umm i think fiy uor'e fingers are stuck together, or stuck to something, and you used proper superglue (not that cheap stuff that says it's superglue but doesn't work very well) you mayb need to go to the hospital to get it removed, as they have proper stuff there. Sorry i can't be anynmore help.

I scrape at my finger with a heated knife and it comes off fine
