Dear Bob,
    Crazy glue is a chemistry called Cyanoacrylate. There are over 30,000
formulas that range from the simple methyl up through ethyl,
butyl,isobutyl,isopropyl, etc. We make several chemistries that will remove
the cured CA. They may contain Acetone, acetalnitrile,butalactone,water
based propylenecarbonate glycol. The technique is either to soften the
adhesive and take it off with a sharp knife or saturate a paper towel with
the water based remover and let the dissolved adhesive capillary up into the
paper.
    Discribe the specimen that has the adhesive where you don't want it.

Bill Mason
