Recently i glued this part to a wrong place...Its already a few weeks old's mistake..i wonder if there's a way to remove the cement or is it the end? Btw.. i use tamiya cement.

You could remove it then lightly sand that spot try not to take off the paint, then use tamiya compound to smooth out the paint and rewax. or repaint the small section then compound then rewax. Good luck

What i meant was removing part A from part B....not removing the cement frm the body....Sorry for the mix-up

Putting the part you glued into a snap-lock bag, then placing it in the freezer for a little while will make the glue brittle, which will make it come apart easier. But still be careful when trying to remove the 2 pieces, because there's still glue there!
