    It's tough to give general advice without more information... You might consider taking it to a local specialist who has knowledge and experience with this kind of thing (maybe a restoration specialist?)

    I'm sure there are solvents for the glue, though there might be stains

    Try a little acetone where the glue is. I don't think it will damage the jersey, but try a small spot first to be sure.

    Try freezing it.

  • Game used jersey GLUED to frame - how do I save this?

    Hey guys,

    Long story short, a buddy of mine purchased a local restaurant that had, among other things he gave me, a framed, game worn Vandy baseball jersey...but the sleeves were wrapped around from the back to the outside and GLUED TO the back of the frame. Additionally, and even worse, the genius that decided to superglue this ALSO glued random trinkets (among those being several pencils, keychains and other Vandy things ON the jersey.

    And it gets better...and by better I mean worse.

    They proceeded to glue the jersey TO THE FRAME, thankfully JUST along the edges of the jersey. Needless to say, I'm in a bind and I was wondering if anyone knew a way to get superglue AND dried, superglued construction paper off this jersey?

    I've peeled and pulled for about an hour and I can barely tell I've done anything, so I'm kinda ready for suggestions to say the least!
Working...
