Phone the number on the packet and ask then to send you their tube of superglue remover (this is not a joke).
Or you may find it at a toolstore.
Try not to touch it with anything or it will stick on. |

as john says superglue remover
is the top glass!!!!
superglue dosnt stick overly well to glass
try a plastic spatula
somtimes the back of your dishwashing brush will have a scraper on it
if its on an area that will heat up you could try gentle heat to try and loosen the glue but i would be carefull of poisenous fumes and possibly burning the glue on
you could always ask the manufacturer of the cooker!!!! __________________ big all

Thank you for replies, appreciated - the super has no manufacturer on it (!) one of those job lots from the pound shop 12 for a £1, all it says is maker osaka japan, great....
Will try and get general super glue remover, its on the stainless steel bit that meets the ceramic hob, top bit too........
My other half comes home tomorrow, £900 zanussi cooker that she bought every accessory known to man for keeping it gleaming.
Should i just run away...  |

Superglue comes off with water (yes really)..it sets in the presence of water, so soak it with water so that it goes crumbly and white then it easy to pick off... maybe warm water soaked cloth or flannel for a few hours...or as mentioned superglue remover from a hardware shop. |
