Oftentimes when using E-6000 adhesive glue during the course of a craft project, glue will inadvertently come into contact with table, fabric or skin. This can cause a problem as the glue can cause an immediate bond with whatever it comes into contact with. This adhesive bond can be broken through the use of the solvent like acetone, toluene, or naphtha. Applying a small amount of solvent to the glue can cause it to break up, freeing whatever it has come into contact with.
