Acetone is a solvent for superglue. However, you would need to be extremely careful as it may also be a solvent for the plastic too!

Not all nail polish remover has acetone in it anymore so you'd need to check the bottle. I got some recently in Home Bargains and it worked very well on getting some ill advised superglue off a silver bangle - one of those bright ideas that didn't work!

How to remove super glue from most household surfaces with WD-40

Ever tried to peel a sticker or old label from a bottle or jar, only to see stubborn glue residue stick to the surface? It’s also a problem for parents
