The ability of your lock to function properly is dependent upon complete removal of the Super Glue.
Things You Will Need
-
Dip a cotton swab in nail polish remover that contains acetone. Rub the acetone on the Super Glue on or in your lock. Add more nail polish remover as needed or, if possible, pour directly onto your lock.
-
Wipe softening Super Glue with clean cotton swabs.
-
Sand or file remaining Super Glue residue with a nail file or sandpaper. Rub back and forth to wear off the glue.
-
Chip off any last traces of Super Glue residue from the outside or inside of a lock using a Flathead screwdriver. Be careful to chip only at the glue and not damage the lock.
