    I am working with a crow skeleton, and I used to much superglue trying to attach the ribs. I used tweezers and acetone on a q tip to remove it in a gellish form, but now the bones look all crusty and white. What more should I do to make it go back to a natural color? I've tried water and it doesn't work.

    Cyanoacrylate glues are removed/thinned with acetone. Soaking them in acetone will remove all the excess. It seems that the acetone on a q tip just thinned the glue and deposited it all over the rest of the bone.
