Unfortunatly, I've had limited success with goo gone and super glue. I tried using it to de-bond a super glued piece of plastic on one of my 1/144 scale models. No success whatsoever.

I build r/c airplanes and superglue is used quite a lot
. Its always fun when you glue yourself to a wing or something. Cyanoacrylate debonder will work, and is the safest way of unglueing any unfortunate joints.
[edit] Since its has dried onto a very smooth surface you could also try scraping it off with a fingernail or slightly sharp edge.

Scraping it off would probably be a bad idea, seeing that the coating would probably come off with the super glue, yes?

Wow, the title of this thread had my mind going in a totally different direction. After reading the thread I'm kind of dissappointed. I thought it would be funnier!!

You could have tried to make it so, by telling a joke!

A generous helping of Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid shoudl do the trick, just try not to get it in your eyes.

meh. I've removed superglue / epoxy in a few ways .. (dont ask)
1. Plastic solvent - works beatifully, but usually eats away the plastic that the superglue was glued onto.. uhm. yeah. probably not the best of ideas
2. Carb cleaner - works pretty well, with scotch-brite and this stuff. it comes off..
3. WD40/Liquid Wrentch - works. just gets everything really slippery and smells like crap... also it involves alot of scrubbing.
