undoing plastic cement

Hi everyone,

Help! I’m working on a Walthers Cornerstone Medusa Cement Company for my HO layout. The directions are very vague. Anyhoo, I glued the railcar awning on the wrong side and need to remove it but the cement has already dried. I tried nail polish remover, but no luck. Any suggestions?

Use some more plastic cement the joint should loosen, use it sparingly though as it will eat up detail very quickly, Pat.

If that fails, just carefully start to scribe with a very sharp blade to remove. The more you keep adding solvents the greater the marred surface.
