How to remove a glued piece of resin?

What’s the best method to remove a piece of resin that’s been glued on ?

If it is glued with superglue and depending on the size of the surface area, you can do the following:

 

-Carefully pry the parts apart with a sharp exacto knife. Be very careful while doing this because you could cut yourself something fierce.

 

-Failing that (say the bond is too strong), but the miniature in the freezer for about an hour. The cold makes superglue brittle and might allow you to pry apart the pieces with more ease.

 

-If you can, try and separate the pieces via a very thin saw.

 

-There are some solvents for superglue on the market; maybe research those and find out if they harm resin?

 

 

If you have used a two-part epoxy, like Araldite, then I'm afraid I can't really help you :/

Observers advice is good. I would amputate with Clippers or knife. You are going to cause damage so plan for it and patch with greenstuff.
