I have heard that nail polish remover helps to take it off skin but I don't know what that would do to fabric. It might be a spot you could appliqué over?

Depending on the fabric nail polish will remove it but if the fabric is acetate polish remover will melt the fabric. If the fabric is a natural fiber, cotton, wool, linen you should be okay.

Thanks, I'll try the remover. It's a cotton knit shirt and my absolute favorite. Thanks!

If that doesn't work, try hair spray.

Put it in the freezer and see if it freezes and then it can be rubbed off gently.

There is a product called "De-Bonder" It costs about the same as the "super glue" itself and can be found at Hobby stores that sell model cars, planes and rockets. Just make sure that you don't get it close to any glued items you want to keep glued because it does work very well.

Oh and by the way. Don't RUB anything off of fabric because it will damage the fibers and it will look fuzzy there forever. Tamp it up and down with a stiff brush.

Had no idea but really wanted to see the suggestions. I will definitely be writing these down "just in case".
