Crazy Glued Screws????....

[PoweredByNitro]

ok I just received a car from ebay its an RS4 and I think the owner crazy glued the screws on the car.. Some of the are really hard to get out and have stripped a few hexheads. Is there a way to get these out easier?? The reason why I think its crazy glue is because there is some sort of whiteish dust on the threads and on the carbon upperdeck there is a clear epoxy around the washer and screw. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

One of the best way to get it off anything is 100% acetone. I dont know if you can soak it in it but you might get some on there to break the bond to get the bolts loose.

will the acetone harm carbon fibre or purple anodized parts??? thanks for the quick reply!

Dont use acetone on a carbon deck it will possibly delaminate the resin from the carbon as far as annodizing I dont think it will hurt it

not gonna bother with the acetone just gonna use my dremel tool and cut slits in the stripped screws. What a pain in the A$$!!! ever heard of someone using crazy glue instead of thread lock?? jeez

Actually I have heard of it, my hobby shop was even recomending it when they were out of threadlock.
