Right, the super glue did not come off with the WD-40. But I used some terpes (sp?) I use it for getting paint off paint brushes and I gently rubbed that in with a cloth and nearly all of it has come off, its alot less noticeable anyways. Just re-waxed those parts aswel and looks good.

Mate i had this on my car and nothing would move it! I tried WD40, Meths, White Spirit, Super Glue Remover, Petrol, Tar Remover etc etc..
Then i tried Acetone which is what they use to remove acrylic nails.. Thats apparently the only weakness that superglue has.. Got it off a treat. BUT!!! Be careful with it and make sure you have a bowl of warm soapy water to get rid of it afterwards!

i would be very carefully if using acetone as it will pull the paint off your car 
i used it to clean my engine bay and a bit got on the under side of the bonnet and was missed in the rinse off and has changed the colour of the paint, luckly only a few specs
