        Buy a DSSD or SD

          As you age, you will appreciate the cyclops... I just traded a SD for a LV...

            if you insist, you wipe the crystal in some mineral spirits, and the glue will be broken down, then you can remove the cyclops by scratching it off.

                  yes, some kind of "acid" will break down the glue residue.
