To remove dried fingernail polish from polyester material, follow these steps:
1. Scrape off as much dried polish as possible using a blunt object, like a butter knife or spoon.
2. Dampen a clean cloth with rubbing alcohol or acetone.
3. Gently blot the stained area with the cloth, being careful not to rub too hard and damage the fabric.
4. Continue blotting until the polish starts to lift.
5. Rinse the area with cold water to remove any remaining polish and cleaning solution.
6. If the stain persists, repeat the process or try using a commercial stain remover specifically designed for nail polish.
7. Launder the polyester material as usual, following the care instructions.
Even though polyester is a sturdy fabric, nail polish in any color can leave stubborn stains on it. It is recommended to remove the nail polish from the polyester as soon as possible. Once the polish dries, it becomes more challenging to remove. To prevent the dried nail polish from causing a permanent stain, it is important to remove it promptly.
Step 1
Take a small amount of nail polish remover that contains acetone and pour it into a bowl. Use an eyedropper to draw the acetone into it.
Step 2
Apply one drop of acetone at a time to the dried nail polish until it is covered. Immediately blot the dried polish with a white cloth.
Step 3
Continue applying acetone and blotting with the cloth until all the dried polish is removed.
Step 4
Moisten a clean cloth with dry-cleaning solvent until it is damp. Blot the remaining nail polish with the cloth for a few seconds. If the fingernail polish is still visible on the polyester, proceed with the following steps.
Step 5
If the stain persists, use a clean eyedropper to apply one drop of three-percent hydrogen peroxide to the stain. Blot the remaining stains with a cloth dampened with cold water. Repeat this process until all the dried nail polish is removed from the polyester.
