I've just framed a synthetic moulding (black) using Bondloc (and the spray). Unfortunately I got a bit of glue on my finger and it has marked the black frame. Does anyone know of any solution where I can wipe this glue off?
Many thanks
Linda

Lighter fluid often works, at least in the early stages before the glue sets.

I may be wrong but I suspect the glue has 'melted' the surface finish and you could struggle to remove the mark.

Re: glue problem help!
You are correct, can't get the glue off 
I've smoothed some black bison over it and this has helped. Thank goodness that my neighbour didn't mind, as he got the frame for cost price. Will remember in future not to stick the glue to my fingers!!! will wear gloves in future.
Thanks for all your advice though, it is much appreciated.
