Title: Red Glitter Glue
Post by: Big_Fish on October 30, 2004, 01:22:26 pm

Hello All,

have just taken a call from a chap who's daughter has poured bright red glitter glue onto the middle of his new beige carpet. He has tried both 1001 and Vanish but it hasn't got rid of it...just made the patch bigger and pink!

We can't get out there until Tuesday.
Any idea what this stuff is made up of and wonder what you guys might use to try to get rid of it?

Thanks
BF

Hi Big_Fish, I have found Eco spotter works wonders on glue, then again it works wonders on most things :)

Big Fish,

Most of these types of glues will be dissolved/softened by solvents such as alcohol,white spirit etc

Cheers,

Doug

Ta for that. We usually use solvent, just interested to hear of any other avenues
