Title says it all. Had a fuzzy prime I need to fix but am concerned that it will damage my green stuff work.

I hear Superclean is great but will I be safe?

I usually use simple green to strip my models, and it doesn't eat away greenstuff. I haven't used superclean before, but i don't think it'll eat it. Best i can say is try it on a small bit of dried greenstuff and see what happens.

It softens it, but doesn't destroy it.

Depends on wgphat paint stripper youre using. Both LAs totally awesome and simple green dont destroy greenstuff, but if youre using anything else, youll have to google it or post it here.

I've stripped alot of figs and not had any notably softening of greenstuff with simple green, but it does break down superglue bonds. Some folks use a combo of SG and superglue to make bonds for metal models, so you may end up doing some regluing.

I don't know if it necessarily weakens the bond between SG and the model, but if so, that's an easy fix with some glue after the paint is gone.
