I know, this may seem like a stupid question or not relevant at all. Fortunately my fingers aren't stuck on each other, some super glue just got stuck to them. I was super-gluing my bag since it tore a bit. Des anyone know how to remove them, it feels really weird, I'm afraid to peel of my skin with the glue. These are just one of the small, everyday problems in life- but sometimes we still need others' help to fix it.

hi lady, i have seen this from a movie. the hands of the actor got stuck on the private parts of the statue when he and the actress glued the same because the statue fell. it is a funny scene indeed. the actress, placed some acetone on a piece of cotton and then she dabs it on the portion where the glue and the skin had stuck together. then it was slowly taken off. i havent tried but i hope it is effective. have a nice day. ann

The best way is to simply run the fingers for a while under warm water. This will kind of melt it off without injuring the skin.

Oh,that would hurt. This happens to my son before. He was trying to fix his toy using super glue and accidentally glued his fingers too. He came running from his room looking for help,and good thing is we have acetone at home. So,i poured in acetone and it helps loosen his fingers but still some skin are peeled off,and he really cried (gives him lesson as well) Be careful next time
