While fingernail polish remover has the same ingredient, it is diluted and coloring and scent are also added.
You should wear rubber gloves while doing this. Using a cotton cloth, dampen the cloth and test a small out of sight area to insure that the upholstery is not damaged by the acetone. Once this is confirmed, rub the glue to soften and dissolve it.
Be careful not to spread it out any further. You may need to add more to your cloth as you work. Once you have removed the bulk of the glue, use a new clean spot on your cloth and repeat the process to remove any residue. You may need to repeat this more than once to thoroughly clean the area. Ive also read that "Mr Clean Magic Eraser" can remove it.
Good luck!

Acetone will get the super glue out. But it will also remove the shirts color, unless it is already white. Nail polish remover is only a weaker concentrate of acetone, so that can be used as well.
Try looking in a beauty section near fake nails to see if there are any gentle products for removing nail glue/superglue.
I doubt you'll find anything that can completely remove the glue without removing the shirt's dye.

Scissors! heavily... the product this is made to get rid of super glue will the two bleach your blouse, or consume a hollow in it. I see nail polish remover became stated above, yet that frequently consists of Acetone -- this could bleach a stain on your blouse...Ive executed assorted artwork with acetone by way of the years, and characteristic the stains to tutor it. Sorry i won't be able to grant you with some solid information in this one
