How do you remove super glue from plastic?

You may take Goo Gone and rub it in, in circles, until the superglue comes off. Or use Goo Gone multiple times until glue is off of the surface.Actually goo gone is NOT SAFE for use on plastics and will "melt" the plastic surface. This damage is NOT repairable (I found out the hard way!) ORUse rubbing alcohol - take a q-tip, dip it in the rubbing alcohol, and rub at the dried glue until it softens. Then wipe or rinse it away.ANS 2 - You can NOT successfully remove superglue from any plastic. It almost always mars the surface.
