Hey everyone! I'm dealing with some stubborn E6000 adhesive on my plexiglass and I'm trying to figure out how to get it off without ruining the surface. I'm looking for any tips or tricks that might help. If you have experience with this, what do you recommend?

I've used WD-40 to remove tough decals, and it worked like a charm! While I've never tried it on plexiglass, it could be worth a shot. Just make sure to clean it off thoroughly afterward.
Goo Gone might seem like a good option, but just a heads up that it could eat into the plexiglass and leave a frosted look. I'd avoid it if you can! Maybe a lens restoration kit could help if you do end up with some clouding after removal.
You could try using 3M Super Adhesive Remover. It's pretty effective! Just be cautious, as some adhesives can cloud the surface or damage the plexiglass. If worse comes to worst, you might consider just replacing the piece of plexiglass for a fresh start.
I found a plastic razor blade scraper on Amazon that's perfect for this. It works well for delicate jobs like scraping off glue without scratching the plexiglass. I'd definitely give that a try!
Good call! I've heard that even gentle adhesive removers can leave a matte finish on acrylic. Always better to be safe!
