<\/p>\nGorilla glue is one of the strongest glues around. You may have seen their funny commercials claiming that it can bond to just about anything.<\/p>\n
So the idea of even a bit of the glue getting on your skin can be scary, especially considering that it dries very fast, likely before you have time to get it off.<\/p>\n
Thankfully, gorilla glue on skin is fairly easy to remove using easy to find household products.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Gorilla glue can cause irritation if it gets onto your skin. But it\u2019s not particularly dangerous. Once you remove it, it does not cause any lasting harm.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s dangerous is continuously inhaling the fumes from the glue when you are working with it. This could have long term health effects. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important to wear a mask or respirator when using Gorilla glue, or any other kind of glue.<\/p>\n
Ingesting Gorilla glue can also be very dangerous as it can create an obstruction. Call a doctor or go to the ER immediately if you or someone else ingests Gorilla glue.<\/p>\n
Nothing serious happens. The glue will simply dry, making that part of your skin feel smooth. If you catch the spill fast enough, you could quickly wipe it off.<\/p>\n
But the glue usually dries too fast before you have time to do anything. You shouldn\u2019t experience any adverse effects. In some people however, especially those with sensitive skin<\/a>, Gorilla glue can cause irritation and itchiness on the skin<\/a>.<\/p>\n If Gorilla glue binds your skin together – e.g. your lips, eyelids or fingers – that\u2019s a bit more serious. The glue sets and binds surfaces quickly and strongly. Once it dries, you\u2019ll not be able to pry your skin apart without some help.<\/p>\n If you get Gorilla glue on your skin, don’t panic. The glue may be super strong, but it\u2019s not permanent or invincible. It\u2019s relatively easy to get rid of it.<\/p>\n If Gorilla glue binds your skin together, it\u2019ll be harder to remove but not impossible. If the glue has dried, do not attempt to pry your skin apart.<\/p>\n Gorilla glue is really strong and you could tear your skin. Instead, soak the area in warm soapy water for several minutes. Then try gently wiggling your fingers or skin apart. If the skin doesn’t separate, soak for a few more minutes.<\/p>\n You can also try applying vaseline, oil or acetone to that area to loosen the glue enough that you can separate your skin.<\/p>\n If nothing works, seek medical attention.<\/p>\n What if Gorilla glue gets into your eyes?<\/p>\n Immediately wash with warm water. Do not use soap, acetone or any chemical as it could irritate or harm your eyes. Seek medical attention especially if you experience any adverse symptoms like pain or swelling.<\/p>\n If the glue binds your eyelids together, do not try to pry them open. Immediately wash your eyes with warm water and see if that loosens the glue.<\/p>\n If it doesn’t, go to a doctor. They\u2019ll likely have something that can loosen the glue without hurting your eyes.<\/p>\n Do the same thing if you get Gorilla glue on your lips. Wash with warm water and try to gently peel your lips apart. You can also apply vaseline on your lips to help loosen the glue.<\/p>\n If you haven\u2019t come across the story of the girl who used Gorilla glue on her hair instead of hair glue, here is the video to give you an idea of what Gorilla glue can do to your hair.<\/p>\nHow To Remove Gorilla Glue On Skin<\/h2>\n
