Super glue creates an awful white film on glass which is the downfall of many a well-intentioned crafter. First, if there's a large buildup of glue on the piece of glass, you can carefully pry it away with a razor--be careful not to scratch the glass, though. The next step is acetone (in some nail polish removers). It damages wood and removes the color from most things, but is fine if you are just working with glass. It will remove the backing from most modern mirrors if it gets behind it. If you can't use acetone, you can try using dish soap and water, but you're probably going to be out of luck at fully removing the white film.
Next comes lots of rubbing. Use a q-tip or soft cloth to lightly rub the nail polish remover on the glass. Occasionally rinse the glass clean, and rub the glass for a while while it's dry. Be extra careful if you're removing tiny bits of jagged super glue. They'll displace a couple inches then start to scratch the glass. If the glass is smooth, after a couple hours of rubbing and acetone the film should fade (depending on your luck). Rough glass, however, might never be fully clear--the saving grace here is that rough glass is rarely fully clear in the first place.

Keep the glass in the sunlight from 9 AM to 12 noon and try to clean with blade or some sharp edge carefully without damaging the glass. Heat is the worst enemy for superglue and it will peel of without any problem.

Acetone. Remove the excess carefully with a straight edge razor and then let soak for a few minutes with acetone.

The glass is ruined now and the fingernail polish may restoration it. i ought to bypass ahead and attempt. the in reality different answer that i will imagine of is warmth. per chance in case you boiled the glass in a pot of water? per chance the glue ought to soften even with the indisputable fact that it may merely smear and worsen.

take a razor blade and scrape it. Keep the blade flush with the glass so you don't scratch it. Or a butter knife.
