  1. i can't garuntee this will work, but paint thinner and/or wd-40 are often good solvents for sticky substances. be careful and don't get any in your mouth or rub it into your skin too hard and DON'T go near any open flames or light a cigarette or anything like this. pour/spray the paint thinner or wd-40 on the part that's been stickified and let it sit for a minute or two then scrub it (not too hard) with a rag. be careful you don't open up your skin you don't want this stuff on your exposed flesh. if it looks like it's working, try a little more and repeat until it'll all gone. if you don't see any improvement pretty quickly, try something else


  2. Gorilla Glue can temporarily stain skin. If you do get the glue on your skin, try a dry cloth or paper towel first (particularly if the glue is still tacky). If that doesn’t work, try washing with soap and cold water, or using an exfoliator with a gritty texture. Dry your skin and apply lotion. We do not recommend using any kind of alcohol or acetone. This actually strips the skin of its natural oils, which means the glue is more likely to stick.

  3. read the "clean up" directions on the label. Or just scrape it with a knife, it will wear of in a few days if you do nothing.

  4. try a monkey spounge

  5. If it's only a thin layer, you could try exfoliating it off.  You can use any of the following if you have them:

    pumice stone

    emery board

    nail file

    lava soap

    sugar scrub*

    salt scrub*

    fine grain sand paper

    Just be gentle and don't scrub your skin off.  If there is a lot there, just scrub gently every day and it shouldn't last more than two or three days.

    Good Luck

    *To make your own sugar or salt scrub mix regular granulated sugar or table salt with some olive (or sunflower, vegetable, baby, etc) oil.  It will exfoliate and moisturize at the same time!
