Default Removing Titebond from Monokote

Was gluing the tail feathers back onto my LT-40 and some titebond oozed out that I didn't see in time to wipe off. Has anyone found a way to remove dried titebond from Monokote?

Thanks,

Victor

Try acetone. Don't soak it, put it on a cloth and keep working at it like you would with CA debonder.

Same as J-R, i often use a Cloth soaked with Ca debonder, let it work on the spot, then wipe with a clean cloth, and the spot is gone!

Titebond's solvent isn't acetone, its water!

Try applying a paper towel and water compress to the affected area and waiting about 1/2 hour. Depending on thickness of the glue, it should wipe off, otherwise keep the compress on it. Watch out for warps!
