You can try nail polish remover, which has an ingredient in it that counteracts the ingredients in nail polish.
It was made from rattlesnake venom.
it is a cheap brand of nail polish that you can find in most drug stores. The quality is good too.
Nothing except air!!
The main ingredient in nail polish is acetone and in some cases acetate. The acetone dissolves the nail polish; liquifying it. This makes it easy for it to wipe off with a cotton ball or tissue.
in my bottle, it is the second ingredient, so a lot.
Nitrocellulose is the basis for nail polish--it's what's left behind on your nails after it dries.
formahdayle That would be spelled, "formaldehyde." And your answer is wrong.
1.) Go to the store. 2.) Buy nail polish remover. 3.) Use as directed on the label.
NOTHING you shouldn't ever put anything on your nails but nail polish. You can try buffing them with olive oil but don't paint them with anything but nail polish. Wal-Mart has some awesome colors of nail polish for just $1.00!!!!!!!! Yes, you read that right. One dollar.
No, hand sanitizer will not remove nail polish. Hand sanitizer is made up of mostly alcohol, an ingredient that kills germs. Nail polish needs something strong such as acetone or an acetone alternative, like ethyl acetate to remove it. Alcohol, when used on a clean nail prior to polishing, actually makes the nail polish adhere better because it cleans the surface of the nail!
No, it is a compound. Household uses of acetone are as the active ingredient in nail polish remover and as paint thinner.
