Superglue on rim

Ok, the Axis wheels dont exactly use a good bonding element for the emblems on my supermesh wheels. Anyways, I replaced one of the emblems and used superglue and I accidently got some on the rim. Its all white now and I dunno what I can use to take the stuff off. Anyone got any advice?? Thanks

I believe there is such a thing as superglue solvent but I'm not sure how it would affect the finish on your rim.

Any pics?

glude- try some "afta" cleaning fluid. YOu can get it hardware stores. I have used it with a little elbow grease on my OEM rims, which are painted in the same manner as the car. It is a great solvent, and it did not harm my rims in any way. I cant tell if your rims are painted, but if not, then its even better for you. This stuff is used to clean machine metal parts. Dont inhale it! LOL It just might do the trick. In fact, I think it will. good luck. keep us posted.
