Well, remember, your goal is probably just to get the thing open. I'd change the lock after a glueing no matter how clean I thought I'd gotten it.

Frankly I would try to find another entry, and if not, probably end up drilling...

On a serious note, in my previous life within the grp boat building industry, Acetone was a definate Health and Safety issue. Because of its 'thinness' (which is why it dissolves) it gets absorbed thru the skin and can accumulate within the internal organs - Of course this is over a real long time and requires the user to regularly have been having direct skin contact with the stuff. The odd spill from the old lady's nail varnish (or your own..  ) wont be a problem.
Sorry Shrub - didnt mean diamonds, Meant to say Boron!

Mine need cleaning again, and I am serious! Gee, I must live in a DUSTY house or something...
And just because it has the same name, consecutively press "shift" 5 times.
