The stable work surface can help reduce your risk of gluing your fingers together, but a drop from the tube could drip onto your counter while you hold pieces together to dry. Super glue dripped on wooden surfaces can be sanded as a last resort, but if you're dealing with a marble surface, you'll need to try another removal method.
Things You Will Need
-
Put on rubber gloves. Dampen a cotton swab or cotton ball liberally with acetone.
-
Moisten the super glue with the acetone to soften it.
-
Scrape the super glue gently off the countertop with the edge of a credit card or plastic putty knife. Repeat applying the acetone and scraping off the glue until the countertop is smooth.
-
Rinse the area clean with a damp cloth.
