Nail Polish Removal Stain Tip For Clothes

Below is a video showing a nail polish removal stain tip for clothes.

The tip is pretty obvious -- use nail polish remover to remove nail polish stains from clothes.

The video itself is pretty helpful, however, because it shows you the step by step method for nail polish stain removal from clothing.

The video cautions that some nail polish removers harm clothes, so try yours in an inconspicuous area and use a different remover if the first one harms the clothing, or removes the color from the fabric.

However, the video does not explain what the difference between various nail polish removers is, or what can cause the harm to clothing.

The big difference between nail polish removers is whether the non-oily ones have acetone in them, or not.

Stain-Removal-101.com advises using acetone to remove nail polish stains.

However, acetone can be harmful to certain types of fabric, such as acetate, which it will melt, for example.

Acetone can also remove color from certain types of fibers.

Therefore, you can also try to remove nail polish stains from clothing with non-acetone nail polish remover, because it is also designed to remove nail polish.

Have you had more success using acetone based nail polish removers, or non-acetone based nail polish removers to remove nail polish stains from your clothing? Please tell us in the comments.
