If it's cyanoacrylate based (which a quick google suggests it is) then yes, acetone should do the trick

If the emphasis is on cheap, there are a few things you might already have at home:
Possibly acetone - try cheap nail varnish remover
Possibly isopropyl alcohol - try surgical spirits / rubbing alcohol
Possibly methylene chloride - try paint stripper but be aware of the fumesI've used nail varnish remover in the past to remove excess thread locking compound during assembly - not sure how different it is when it's had time to cure...

Doesn't boiling water work on blue Loctite? I might be thinking of something else though.

Alternative, cheap, solvent to official one for blue Loctite? So far a little googling says acetone.
