Been a while, but I recently bought another nitefinder expecting it to be no problem, but I pull out the plunger tube and the whole thing is glued together! It looks like there's just white glue but it's still held together good, how would I go about removing the air restrictor now? Would soaking in acetone destroy the plastic?

I don't know about the acetone but have you tried boiling it or a heat gun.Been a while, but I recently bought another nitefinder expecting it to be no problem, but I pull out the plunger tube and the whole thing is glued together!

Acetone just melts the whole thing, I had this problem too...but then again it also may have been th Goof Off I mixed in.

Most people don't use anything near that thick, so I am curious as to what you are up to? I'd offer to sell you some, but alas... I used all that I had when I upgraded the bullet proof glass on my pope-mobile.

Try xylene. Its as strong as acetone if not stronger but is safe on plastics... most plastics. You can get it at hardware stores.
