How can I remove this glue from my wood floor?

How can I remove "super" glue from my wood floor?

I was working on some wooden stools and using "Wonderlok Tite Chairs", which is a kind of super glue that wicks its way into small cracks. Chair rungs, etc. are the main use of Tite Chairs but it could be used in firearm restoration.

My problem;I got a little puddle of "TITE CHAIRS" glue on my wood floor of our kitchen. It is a dried mound about the diameter of a nickel and took the finish off.

I tried to wipe it up and managed to increase the size of the "mess" to about the size of a silver dollar.

Is there anything I can use (acetone, ketone) to remove it or do I sand and varnish.

Is it safe to sand "Super Glue" and possibly inhale small amounts of the sanding dust?

Suggestions?

HELP?
Right now "ain't nobody happy, cause (you know who) ain't happy.

Teach you to do that stuff outside, or with a drop cloth Been trying to find a formulation for it, but no luck so far. Seems pretty badass, though. If it's anything like superglue, you're going to be sanding it and refinishing. Just keep the dust down and don't breathe it. If you burn it, though, you get cyanide, so don't do that..

Wet sanding would be a good way to control the dust. I would sand a little at a time and then let it dry or use a hair dryer so you can see how you've done. If the floor had a good finish there's chance the glue is only on the surface. Sanding carefully may allow you to retain some of the original finish which will help make the repair less noticeable. I don't know what type of finish is on your floor but most have some sort of poly or clear on top. You may also be able to mix a few drops of stain in some poly to help match the rest of the floor. Less is more when doing this, you can always add more to darken it. Some buffing may be required when its done which will further blend in the repair. Of course, keep the repair area as small as possible.

I've done this with decent results before when a floor was damaged. I could still tell where the repair was but most people would never notice it. Good luck.

Acetone or nail polish remover will remove Super Glue. Don't know what it would do to your finish though.
