Default Gorilla Glue

I have just bought and used my first bottle of Gorilla Glue. OK, I know I
should have worn gloves - the instructions on the bottle tells me so, but
who ever reads or takes notice of wimpish things like instructions.

The glue is fabulous: gives plenty of cramp-up time; as strong, if not
stronger than any glue I have ever used; when dry, cleans up like a dream.
But how do you get the *%$!!Łg stuff off your hands? I've tried water,
turps, white spirit, surgical spirit, meths, detergent, pumice stone and 80
grit sandpaper. What do you use to clean up your glue brushes?

It cleans up easily with paint thinner (mineral spirits) as long as it's still
wet. Once it dries, it's there for a few days until it wears away (or the skin
cells it's adhered to slough off naturally).

I use expired credit cards as glue spreaders, instead of using brushes. After
the glue has dried, it can be easily removed from the spreader with a sharp
chisel.
