Ther are only two chemicals known to remiove CA and they are acetone and

Both are aggressive solvents.

The dash is buggered.


The dash is coated with a very thin film of silicon oil mould release
agent from manufacture which is why it is so difficult to get things
to stick to it. I've seen superglue removed by simply leaving
several layers of wet rags on top for a day or three (keeping them
wet) and then rubbing with a coarse rag and hot soapy water. The
other thing which appeared to work well (after the water treatment)
was a rubbing rad and a bit of cooking oil. Most cyanoacrylate
adhesives have poor water resistance and this combined with the
effect of the mould release agent makes them quite easy to remove.
