Liquid Glue is often used in our daily life and work. However, when it is accidentally stained on various surfaces, it will leave unsightly stains, affecting the appearance and use of the items. Different surface materials have different treatment methods for liquid glue stains. Mastering some practical skills can effectively remove these stains.
For liquid glue stains on the surface of clothing, if it is ordinary cotton clothing, you can first soak the stained part of the clothing in warm water to soften the glue slightly. Then, apply an appropriate amount of white vinegar on the back of the stain. The acidic components in white vinegar can help decompose the glue. After soaking for 15-20 minutes, gently scrub the stain with a soft brush. Be careful not to use too much force to avoid damaging the clothing fibers. For some stubborn glue stains, you can add a small amount of laundry powder or laundry detergent to warm water and scrub again. If it is a more delicate material such as silk and wool, do not use too strong chemical reagents or high temperature treatment. You should first drop a few drops of neutral detergent on the stain, press gently with a clean white cloth to absorb the glue stain, and repeat several times until the stain is lightened. Then rinse gently with clean water and avoid rubbing.
When liquid glue is stained on the surface of wooden furniture, act quickly because the glue may damage the coating on the wood surface after drying. First, gently wipe the stain with a clean damp cloth to remove as much glue as possible. For glue stains that have dried, you can use olive oil or mineral oil to apply to the stain and let the oil penetrate the glue to soften it. After standing for 10-15 minutes, gently wipe with a soft cloth, and the glue stain will be wiped off along with the oil. After wiping clean, wipe the surface of the furniture with a clean damp cloth to remove any remaining oil stains.
Liquid glue stains on glass surfaces are relatively easy to remove. You can first use a blade or the edge of a credit card to gently scrape off large pieces of glue on the surface, but be careful not to scratch the glass. Then, use a cotton ball to dip an appropriate amount of acetone or alcohol and gently wipe the stain. Acetone and alcohol can quickly dissolve glue, but because they are volatile and irritating, pay attention to ventilation when using them, and avoid contact with eyes and skin. After wiping, wipe the glass again with a clean damp cloth to remove the residual solvent and glue traces, so that the glass can be restored to a bright and transparent state.
For liquid glue stains on plastic surfaces, due to the particularity of plastic materials, overly strong solvents cannot be used to avoid damaging the plastic surface. You can first try to soak plastic items in hot water to soften the glue. Then, use an eraser to gently wipe the stains, and the friction of the eraser can gradually remove the glue stains. If the stains still exist, you can use a small amount of Fengyoujing to apply to the stains. The ingredients in Fengyoujing can dissolve the glue. After gently wiping with a soft cloth, rinse with clean water.
Removing Liquid Glue stains on different surfaces requires choosing the appropriate method according to the characteristics of the surface material. During the processing, pay attention to the safety of the operation and the protection of the items to avoid greater damage due to improper handling. With these practical tips, you can easily deal with the trouble caused by liquid glue stains and keep your clothes, furniture, glass and plastic items clean and tidy.
