How do you get super glue off aluminum? Also, if i use acetone will it take off the coating on the aluminum and if i wash acetone off will it effect the delrin when i put the aluminum cap back on the delrin? Thank you

Acetone will not remove anodized coating from aluminum.

Acetone will not affect delrin, that’s why dyeing delrin yoyos takes a different technique than dyeing a polycarb yoyo, which does depend on using acetone.
