    You might want to try soaking the fingers in bowl of warm water to get "prune" fingers. That should break the bond and allow you peel it off. Hope you've got someone to help you (glued fingers, vodka etc... make it sound like you might have a little difficulty)

    Ahhhh! Glad to know that others have suffered with this and not had their threads locked :)

    TY for all advice - Got fingers apart now but got crusty fingers!!! Have soaked in oil for a bit and its better but will go get some acetone tomorrow!

    Lesson NOT learned.... tried to do another nail - not a wise move... Won't do it again!!!

    Hi frugal,

    The reason that this thread wasn't closed was that it was started over six years ago, before Martin posted the current rules and gave board guides guidelines for closing threads.

    I'm really glad that you managed to get it sorted out. :) I'll close this thread now as it would be unfair if I were to close your thread and (now that it's been brought to my attention) leave this one open.

    Pink
