That may be so, but since it's a potentially hazardous chemical, there has to be both a general data sheet and emergency information available. And if it is in fact Cyanoacrylate, this is what Wikipedia has to say to this:

Solvents and debonders
Acetone, commonly found in nail polish remover, is a widely available solvent capable of softening cured cyanoacrylate.[31] Other solvents include nitromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, and methylene chloride.[32] gamma-Butyrolactone may also be used to remove cured cyanoacrylate.[33] Commercial debonders are also available.

The solvent I used has around 98% of acetone, iirc. Still it took quite some time to crack that glue. Oh and btw, yes, I removed Lian's rug that way too.

Thanks for help guys!

I'm going to get some pure acetone and see if that will work any better. Also I'm going to let it soak in a little more. I probably wasn't using enough as I was afraid that using too much would damage the plush material.

Understood. It is certainly worth a try, just be careful not to use too much around the lips, might affect them.
BTW Cuddly, I love the TB wigs you made, really nice work.

Oi thanks. If I wasn't such a busy guy - and lazy a$$ whenever I am not busy - there'd be two new styles out by now. but because it's the way it is, the little Akiko that joined us in January still has no name and no hair either

Also I have to mention again that coyote9 is the one who had the idea. I only created my own and applied it to my Teddy Babe.
