Mom: Ok, Heart, spill it...what are you hiding? Heart: hiding?! What makes you think I'm-- Mom: Nail polish? Heart: Oh...nail polish can eat through cheap plastic blow up chairs, eh?
Nail pollish remover (either acetone or ethyl acetate) is a solvent for a lot of things. It’s good for getting masking tape residue off windows after painting and for some sticky label residues from non-food items. Furniture polish (lemon oil) is also a very useful solvent. But the only thing I know to get a nail polish spill out of a carpet is scissors ; - ). Remover only spreads the polish. I know; I tried it.
Well I know if you add nail polish remover to dried out polish and shake it then it revives it , although sometimes it separates the polish from the colour …..

Actually - that doesn’t make sense. Acetone is polish remover.

I think nail polish does use some acetates as solvents (which evaporate quickly after applied). Acetone as a remover just dissolves the polish again.
