Gents, before I start my googlefoo I thought I’d throw out a query.
Does anyone know of a way to get superglue off of a metal model? Specifically in a crevice.
Not sure if just something sharp to try and cut it away it the best option.

I've had some luck with alcohol debonding some super glue but not all I'd try that if ya have some but ya a knife is usually the way too go I've found

putting the model in the freezer for a bit makes the superglue more brittle. but yes, it's all about scraping and hacking with a sharp knife. Be careful or else ...blood for the blood god.

if you don't mind the paint coming off nail polish remover (not the acetone free one) works a charm
I'm redoing my 5th ed lizardmen and there 85% metal and probably 2000 % superglue.

I have used lacquer thinner with great success for stripping models. A few minutes will make the paint break down and overnight will dissolve superglue completely. Just be careful because it is toxic and don't put anything plastic in it.

I had a superglue remover, I'll try and dig it out, now it may have been more for those moments where you've glued something by mistake and it's not toally 100% set and it thins it out but I'll have to look bud

Nail polish remover (not acetone free) works amazing, turns the glue in to gel basically. Just don't put anything plastic in it as it will melt.
