Baking soda seems to do the trick.

Hi Chris,
Good ol' water does the trick ( Siderius tipped me off to this). Superglue was originally (?) developed for medical purposes. Water is the hardener!

Fred, we use to blow threw one of those hollow swizzle stick, straw type things years ago to get it to set faster, same theory as water, as the moisture in your breath acts as the catalyst plus it blows the fumes away to help prevent frosting.
