How Can I Remove Gorilla Glue From My Carpet?
I managed to get some gorilla glue in my carpet and don’t know what to do to get it out. The carpet is about medium length. I know that for every compound there exists a solvent which can dissolve it, so I guess the question is, how can I disolve this gorilla glue without destroying the carpet any further?
Thanks for your help.

Anything that would dissolve polyurethane glue (such as Gorilla Glue) will take your carpet right along with it. The best you can hope for is to scrape, pick, or maybe comb out most of it.

Wow… sounds like you are STUCK!
I think that you need to change your question, and start asking for hints on how to patch carpet (there are techniques for this).

I found the Gorilla Glue website. It did not have your answer but here is the link to their contact page where you can drop them a line with your question. My suggestion would be that you try super glue remover but Gorilla Glue is a totally different product.

Gorilla Glue is GNARLY! I imagine the only way to remove it would be to cut it out as close to the glue as possible. Any other method and you risk creating a larger damage area.
In the future, remember Gorilla Glue is serious stuff!
