My solution: cut around it with a knife, try to scrape some off the PCB as best as I can, then replace the caps and forget about it. Re: How best to remove glued down
Customer ServiceAs soon as the caps (or the board in general) warms up the least little bit, the hot glue releases. Be aware that not all silicone sealants are compatible with electronics. If I
Customer ServiceRe-stuffing the capacitors is a little time-consuming, but I think it''s pretty fun. Grab your tools and supplies: a heat gun, a hot glue gun, clay, wax, the new capacitors, and your old ones to gut. Keep everything handy. You''ll want at least one pair of pliers, too, for helping to extract the guts of the old caps. It''s a good idea to do this
Customer ServiceHigh-temperature hot glue is applied at up to 450F/232C, which far exceeds the maximum working temperature for polypropylene (105C) and polyester (125C~150C) capacitors. Seems way too risky to me. Even the low-temp glue could spell trouble for polypropylene.
Customer ServiceOne or more containers of thin liquid cyanoacrylate based glue, commonly known as "Super Glue". The brand of super glue you choose is not important. The type is. The type must be of low viscosity so it can quickly wick into the empty spaces between the choke coil and the board it''s soldered to. The applicator having a narrow tip nozzle is
Customer ServiceHowever, I discovered that all of the capacitors that are mounted at 90 degree angles are held down by some kind of white glue. Are there any common methods or solvents that can be used to remove the glue? Here''s a picture of the board.

Customer ServiceMany of the capacitors are fastened to the PCB with some kind of white stuff that is somewhat rubber-like - it is obvious that the stuff is there to steady the capacitors mechanically. It can easily be cut with a knife or removed piecemeal with a cutter, especially since my capacitor removal is desctructive.

Customer ServiceI try to take a very sharp utility knife or similar tool that is thin enough to slide under the capacitor (I use an Olfa knife like those used in the window tint industry).

Customer ServiceThere''s really no technical reason to glue capacitors to the circuit board; perhaps it was originally done to reduce shock and vibration damage from shipping long distances. Off the top, I think any chemically compatible glue that''s temperature stable can be used; it ain''t NASA so likely even white glue would do. As for the old glue, just

Tip1: If a capacitor has long enough leads exposed on the front side of the board, you can cut the capacitor off leaving the old leads and solder the new capacitor to the old leads. This method is even faster. See the last picture for an example. Tip 2: You should replace all the electrolytic capacitors, not just the visibly bad ones.
Keep the jumpers short as possible and twisted together, it will reduce interference. Strip the ends of the jumpers, solder them to the old capacitor leads and to the new capacitor leads. Hot melt glue the new capacitor to the top of the board, the jumpers should remain twisted.
For larger capacitors use thicker wire (lower gauge) or put multiple cat 5 strands in parallel to each lead. Find and mark all the capacitor leads on the back side of the circuit with + and -. Make jumpers that will go from the back side of the board to the front of the board where the new capacitor will be placed.

The biggest risk to putting them in parallel is that the bad cap may leak and corrode the circuit, but because most of the current will go through the new cap the old cap should deteriorate slowly. In the first picture the new capacitors are laying on their side, hot melt glued to the front of the board.
