Nitromethane dissolves neoprene but doesn't harm rubber. I think
acetone is the most widely used solvent for cyanoacrylate.

who was a complete dork and accidentally dripped cyanoacrylate
superglue
onto the OK button at the back of his camera (it could,

speaking and only in your imagination - this could never happen in

If said imaginary but stupid friend were to try and remove the
superglue
using acetone, what would (theoretically) be the effect on the
body seals
and possibly on the electronics, plastics, etc of this non-
existent but
theoretically possible camera?
What about Nitromethane?

Yes indeed. Perhaps that's what the Super Glue dissolver I mentioned
is! I'm sure my bottle of it cost ME $3.50 or more, whilst the
manufacturer spent all of $.09 on it! And most of that was the
bottle and label!
