Are you using superglue on painted plastic, bare plastic, or clear parts? Superglue will fog clear parts very noticeably. Sometimes polishing the affected part removes the fogging, but if you want to avoid fogging you have to use less glue and let it dry thoroughly in open air. Prevention is easier than cure.

Hopefully someone else may have a better suggestion?

If parts are cleared with One-Go (Future) floor polish then they don't fog. It also makes "glass" look thinner.

However, it's too late now.
Sometimes the fogging will polish off with a dampened cotton bud.
Otherwise a light coat of brush on acrylic clear (gloss, satin or matt as applicable) will make it go away.

Best solution to fogging is however not to use superglue. Try 5 minute epoxy plus patience. While you have to wait for it to dry it is better IMO as there is a small amount of give in the join. While superglue is strong it's also brittle and a knock might remove a superglued part when it would have stayed in place if it was epoxied.

try baby oil on a cotton stick to remove fogging also, (works better than kitchen oils).

Works a treat doorslammerfan
