    Default Super Glue: Magic

    I might be in the wrong forum but I gave myself a bleeder, and yes, superglue is magic!

    My guess is I will shave off in a couple of days? (not sure how I'll get t off the fingers, my bad..)

    Thanks Gents!

    did you try styptic first? superglue is a good fix for deep cuts , I used it all the time at work , because unless you were missing body parts we just patched you and got back to work ,, plus the guys were tired of me stitching them up with fishing line ,, so superglue.. but unless its a real cut from shaving , nothing ive ever had needed more than styptic tc

    Used alum bar, cold water, pressure, tissue... Spent a lot of time with less resorts.. small cut but bleed like heck.. the last resort, blood on floor, sink on my shirt,etc.. I think I caught the corner (spike, but not technically) on a non rounded blade.. I have taken the corner of that blade to my hone.. I don't suspect I'll do that again..

    Oh yeah, I use it all the time for minor cuts and skin cracks on my fingers, but I've never used it for shaving nicks. I believe a spray form in the 60's was used in Vietnam to temporarily close wounds on the battlefield.

    Use nail polish remover (acetone) to get the super glue off your fingers. Be careful, as it is extremely flammable.
