"Un-glueing" Gorilla Glue

[RobertInOntario]

The article does not mention the type of paint thinner to use. Mineral spirits would not hurt the plastic, but I suspect that for Gorilla glue, you will need either laquer thinner, acetone, or mek to dissolve it. The problem is all three will dissolve styrene plastic. My suggestion is to leave the bumper in place and install another one on the spur that it should have been on. If you don't want any bumper on that track for some reason, cut the track just in front of the bumper and move that short section of track to the spur that you want the bumper on. You won't really be wasting a section of Peco track, just moving the 1 inch or so long section from one spur to another.

Thanks -- yes, this might be my best bet. I'll try this. I don't want to destroy or wreck the buffer as they are relatively expensive. They're only pieces of plastic but they cost close to $3 apiece.
