Home Depot has spray foam remover in the paint department. Works on hands but you will need several applications.

It’s on your phone now too. Why don’t you go jerk off and ruin that too?

Good luck, in my experience if it dries it damn near has to wear off or your skin will shed before it comes loose.

If it hasn't cured you have a much better chance with solvents, oils, etc. breaking it down.

if dried, time is what works best for me. If still sticky then acetone.

agree with the others...once it has dried, I have not found anything to get it off. I usually end up using something like an emery board to try to wear it down to a presentable state.

Use Neosporin or Vaseline. That makes super glue deactivate and come off. Worth a shot.

Sandpaper. Don’t be a bitch.

it has to just wear off but to speed things up use liberal amounts of hand lotion to get oil into the skin, then soak your hands in water until they start to wrinkle, that will allow you to get about 60% of it off, the rest just takes a few days for your outer layer of skin to die and peel off with the foam.

sand paper helps as well to remove it to just a smooth skin like layer
