super glue on apple watch band

I managed to get super glue on my apple watch band where it attaches to the watch. Is there anything I can use to dissolve the glue so I can change the band?

Apple Watch Series 2, watchOS 6

Hello bodiejake,


How to clean your Apple Watch covers the safest way to clean your Apple Watch and band to avoid damage.


"Keep your Apple Watch clean and dry. Soaps, cleaning products, abrasive materials,* compressed air, ultrasonic cleaning, and external heat sources can cause damage and shouldn't be used with your Apple Watch. 

To clean your Apple Watch, follow these steps:

  1. Turn off your Apple Watch and remove it from the charger.
  2. If you have a leather band, remove it from your Apple Watch.
  3. Wipe your Apple Watch clean with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with fresh water. If your Apple Watch has substances or debris visible in places such as the speaker ports, you can hold your Apple Watch under lightly running, warm, fresh water until it's clean. Soaps and other cleaning products shouldn’t be used.
  4. Dry your Apple Watch with a nonabrasive, lint-free cloth, including the surface of the back crystal."


If you're still unable to remove the super glue after using these suggestions, and it impacts the ability to remove your Apple Watch band, you'll want to contact Apple Support directly.


Regards.
