How to Get Hot Glue Off Clothes?

Let the glue cool and harden completely

Place the fabric in the freezer for 15 to 30 minutes if possible

Gently peel or scrape off the hardened glue with a dull knife, spoon, or credit card

Check the clothing care label before using heat or solvents

Put a paper towel, parchment paper, or clean cloth under the glued area

Use a warm iron on low heat over a cloth or paper towel to soften the glue

Lift softened glue away as it transfers to the paper towel or cloth

Repeat with a fresh paper towel or cloth if needed

Apply rubbing alcohol to any remaining residue with a cotton ball or cloth

Gently rub the area until the residue loosens

Wash the garment according to the care label

Air-dry the clothing and check that the glue is fully removed before using a dryer

Repeat the process if any glue remains

Test any solvent on a hidden area first if the fabric is delicate or colored
