Soak it in hot soapy water for a while & its will work loose. Try screwing the bolt in & out while submerged in the water.

If it CA glue you used you can also use acetone on it to soften it up. They sell CA remover in the hobby store's but I am pretty sure it is just acetone. In a bind I have even used my wife's nail polish remover which has acetone in it.

I have use CA Remover, the stuff I had was really thick so it stayed where it needed to be. Sorry can't remember the name, but it should work. Good luck.
