Default RE: Glue

Its an exceedingly bad idea to use acetone or any of the debonders directly on your skin. Thats stuff is nasty and can have collectively bad effects on your health.

Much, much better using nothing and just peeling off slowly with time. For what its worth CA was used as field sutures in Viet Nam and is used also for many kinds of closure instead of stitchs now. However this stuff is produced to a higher standards of purity and so forth for the medical use than what we use.
