I need to remove e6000 glue from a wedding veil
As reported in the information leaflet, E-6000 can be removed using nail polisher remover, which contains acetone. Here an extract from the leaflet:
"Uncured E-6000 can be cleaned by using small amounts of solvents such as Acetone, Tolulene or Naphtha. Cured E-6000 requires scraping or cutting away product with sharp knife and use of mineral spirits to soften product."
Hardened E-6000 may be more difficult to remove. Below a list of E-6000 solvents, as reported in the adhesive's specification sheet:
Chevron solvent 1100
Chlorothane NU
Cyclohexane
Gasoline
Methylene chloride
Perchloroethylene
Propyl acetate
Toluene
1, 1, 1-Trichloroethane
Most of the products mentioned above require special precautions, as they can be toxic, flammable or corrosive. When doing the removal job observe carefully the health and safety prescriptions for the chosen solvent.
