Works great on smaller cuts. Had it happen to OSO bartender Jersey on ASG's boat a couple years ago. Worked great.

As for liability, carcinogens, infections, etc.......... FYI... none of you are getting out of this life alive :)

Too late to close this. The cut must be stitched within 6 hours of the initial injury. The wound must be properly cleaned. Cyanoacrylate(super glue) is a medical tool but not for a deep injury such as this. Don't take a chance as this can be a serious risk for infection!

i used to use it when barefooting. We'd always catch little stuff and nick the hell or something open.. it worked fantastic on the calloused surface of a foot, never really used it on softer skin..

I used to use it when I was a UPS driver, the cracks on my hands from the steering wheel in the winter, eventually the new skin would push it out and you could just pull it off like a scab.

A guy did the same thing on the Miami Boat Show Poker Run. Except he didn't cut himself on the prop, but he used super glue as a band-aid. That was the first time I've heard of using superglue until now.

Little known fact, Super glue was invented in WW1 (or WW2 I forget) for soliders to close cuts and wounds ! Only after did they relize a comercial benifit for the glue.

Ever wonder why it bonds skin so fast? ecause it was originaly designed for doing just that!
