Gorilla Glue
Can anybody tell me what will remove Gorilla Glue from my skin (hands). I have tried everything I can think of with no results?

I would also try some spirits. That might be a little better then acetone.

From their FAQ:
Quote:
Q.What happens if I get Gorilla Glue on my hands or clothes?

A. Wash hands with water and soap immediately. If Gorilla Glue dries on your hands, you will usually wait 3 to 5 days to wear it off. Apply hand cream or lotion regularly to help soften up the dried glue.

We recommend wearing gloves while gluing or a disposable brush. Gorilla Glue cannot be removed from clothes easily so we suggest wearing old or protective clothing.

Not sure if it will work for gorilla glue, but I used to get CA glue (super glue) on the hands all the time building R/C airplanes. Besides the usual acetone or spirits, medium sand paper can take down the rough spots as long as you're not too rough on the skin.

I know what you mean. I find that amputation is often the fastest method.

It literally does have to wear off in some cases.

I sell Gorilla glue... We tell people about washing right away.. but it never works...

you could try some accetone or even some straight gas.. but it will wear off in a few days.

Hmmm, good idea, but if the glue is on your "strong" hand, it may be hard to run it one-handed. Maybe try one of these instead:
