One of the most common problems people have with getting nail polish off their clothes is that acetone is apparently not the best way to go about it. Acetone is a common nail polish remover, but it can also cause skin irritation and even chemical burns. If you need to remove nail polish from clothes, there are a few things you can do:
– try using a non-acetone cleaner, like a soap or shampoo;
– use a hair dryer on a low or cool setting;
– use a fabric softener;
– use a citrus-scented acetone remover like 306 (available at most beauty stores); or
– try using a nail polish remover specifically designed for clothes, like Goof Off Nail Polish Remover (available at most grocery stores).

Acetone is a very strong solvent that can dissolve most types of nail polish. Vinegar is a powerful cleaner and will also dissolve nail polish. Soap is a mild surfactant that helps the acetone and vinegar clean the nail polish off of the clothes. Laundry detergent will help clean the acetone and vinegar off of the clothes.
