Spilled a couple drops of krazy glue on laptop screen, how to clean?

I spilled a couple drops of krazy glue on my laptops screen while trying to fix the magnetic strips that normally shut the laptop. They had fallen off and the laptop wouldn’t close, so I glued them back and that worked, except for the drops I spilled! Now there’s a scratchy dried up glue stain on the top right of my screen. I tried using isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) on the screen and it had no effect.

I was going to try Acetone next, but I heard that acetone ruins plastics, so I was worried it would damage the laptop screen even more. Any ideas on what I should try to get these glue stains off my screen? I don’t think hot water and soap or rubbing alcohol is strong enough.

This is from Wikipedia:

“Cyanoacrylate-based glue has a weak bond with smooth surfaces and as such easily gives to friction; a good example of this is the fact that cyanoacrylates may be removed from human skin by means of abrasives (e.g. sugar or sandpaper). “

Let us know how it goes.

Dama we remove Cyanoacrylate-based glue by using some mineral oil as well as lemon juice. Let those soak for a bit to give them a chance to loosen the bond. Careful with liquids so that those do not run into our screen. Place it so that it is horizontal to avoid run-off. Also, you do not need to rub it so hard as to damage the display. Do not use acetone on your display.

@oldturkey03 Sorry to bother you on such an old thread, but I got some superglue on a matte HP laptop screen, and I wanted to know how you apply the lemon juice and mineral oil? Do you mix them together 50/50 and apply? I tried the mineral oil by itself until I could get some lemon juice, but even after soaking it didn't seem to do anything on its own. Any details would be appreciated, thank you very much!

@armenorbelyan you do not have to mix it. It's either or. It is a PITA to remove specifically from surfaces like the screen. Lay the screen flat, use a hair dryer and gently warm up the glue. then you can try and drip some lemon juice or mineral oil. You may have to do that a couple of times and see if it softens the glue.ones it softens a bit, you can gently pick away. It may take multiple applications and multiple attempt. Hope it will work out for you.

@oldturkey03 appreciate the quick response (from the iFixit legend, no less), will give it a try, Thanks!

i added lime and it left these scratches on my screen you ##&&%

@epicman me "##&&%" why? I did not spill glue on your screen or added lime, nor did I cause those scratches ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Super glue doesn’t come off easily and most solvents that work wreck plastics. Denatured alcohol may work, but that’s as extreme as I’d go to be safe. I wouldn’t use abrasives, since the scratches will be worse then residual Super Glue. I would barricade it with tape to keep it from seeping if I were you.

Try using a solvent that doesn’t mess up plastics or replace the screen if you can't clean it to a satisfactory level. I like some of the ideas from the others, so you may be able to salvage the screen. However, I would do it with the expectation it will never be perfect and it’s just there for good to some degree.

For those who have the same problem and found this thread:

Maybe try dimethyl sulfoxide. Worked for me. Mine was 99%.

Carefully put some dimethyl sulfoxide on the spot, wait for 1 minute. Wipe with a dry cloth. Spray some cleaning liquid for monitors. Wipe. Rinse and repeat until it is gone. Took around 30-50 cycles for me.

It worked on my monitor, but try at your own risk, of course.

just dip a cotton swab in nail polish remover and put the swab on the affected area of the screen for 5-8 minutes, not dab just on it. Now from different side of the cotton swab apply some more nail polish remover and start rubbing on the affected area until the super glue ( ex- feviquick) looses its properties and start leaving the screen. you will see the cottoon swab become black due to removal feviquick.

note:- it is a slow process requires time so please have patience and do not apply nail polish remover on laptop body it will start losing its colour. use nail polish remover only to remover that sticky stain from the screen

enjoy:-)

Cyanoacrylates (Krazy Glue) is pretty tough stuff. As far as I know, acetone is the only substance that can remove it efficiently. Proceed at your own risk (even though it is small).

Acetone? Definitely not!

That's a one way trip to ruining the screen. DON'T TRY THIS.
