REMOVING WOOD GLUE

Dried wood glue can prove to be quite a challenge especially if it ends up spoiling the finished look of your carpentry work

Here Are Some Tips on How to Remove Dried Wood Glue from Different Types of Wood and Finishes

From a Wooden Table

A simple lemon and salt solution can be used to clean wood glue stains on wooden tables.

From Hardwood

Use a hairdryer and spatula to remove the glue before cleaning the stain with a mixture of water and baking soda.

From Parquet Flooring

Use a spatula to scrap the most of the glue off before applying a little bit of baking soda and then wipe with a cloth.

From Waxed Wood

Cover the stain with sheets of absorbent paper and soften by pressing with a hot (not too hot) iron. The paper will absorb the glue.

From Varnished Wood

Use a clean cloth and warm water to dab on the glue-stained area. Cooking oil is a good alternative if the first option does not work.

From Teak Wood

Use a sponge and water to wash the wood glue. Use methylated spirit with a cotton ball to remove any remaining marks.
