    Dab a cotton bud in nail varnish remover and gently dab it on the nail varnish spot. It should dissolve it if you break it down gradually and don't go gung ho at rubbing it etc.

    So a fairly dampened bud, hold it on the spot, then with a clean new bud, repeat until its gone! However if its a material that is man made fibre, i would patch test in a discreet area with nail varnish remover to ensure it doesnt lift dye or damage the material

    I would try scraping it off if it is thick nail varnish,if not nail varnish remover on the article of clothing should do the trick..

    Anyway should you report the idiot who posted that ?

    Please keep to the topic at hand.


    OP, if you're trying it with nail polish remover do a little spot test on a hidden place to make sure it won't stain.

    Dont know if this would work but if you put the cloth in the deep freeze for a few hours would the nail varnish become very hard and brittle , you could then crush, the varnish, solvents etc might just spread it
