    Might sound a bit silly, but I would try WD40. At least there won't be any collateral damage.

    Washing something? Where the heck did he learn that from? You ever thought of a paternity test, might not be yours....

    You could always cover the original superglue marks by glueing those old foil milk bottle tops all over your tank, together with some sequins and beads, and enter it in your local village fete ....either that or sell the tank to your local art gallery for $1 million and tell them it's titled "Petroltank with superglue 2011" No need to thank me....

    Harley Riders and their fetes .

    Originally it had a big fat rubber one on it. I brought a nice pro grip one and the glues texture comes through, shit mate. So i'm gonna try this super glue remover if I can find some.

    Could be an interesting experiment?

    As for superglue on paint, I've heard that coke-cola is effective, but that could also be an urban legend?

    What does work is to use a shortened panel file (run file), though it requires some skill. Here's what I did while experimenting with superglue.

    Final pic was after blocking with P2000 and then soft P3000.

    coca cola? isn't that for rust. I'll try it, looks like super glue remover is quite elusive
