When the nail polish is fresh, try to remove as much as you can by placing a white cloth over it. Don’t scrub as this will worsen the stain and that would be difficult to remove. After the stain is dry, turn the cloth upside down and place a few paper towels beneath it. Blot the stained area with acetone and rinse with water until the stain is gone.

Tip: Never attempt to use nail polish remover or acetone if your fabric is made of acetate, triacetate or modacrylic as it will deteriorate the fabric.

For this, mix a tablespoon of dish washing liquid with two cups of cool water. Pour the detergent solution over the stain and sponge the stain by adding the solution until the stain starts to disappear. After the stain is gone, sponge with cool water and let it dry.

Tip: If the stain remains intact, contact cleaning professional ASAP.

Removing nail polish stain from the carpet is most difficult. Do not use hot water over the carpet as it will only damage it. Start from the corners of the stain with the same solution mentioned above. Don’t start from the center of the rug. You can also use non-acetone nail polish remover for the thing to be done.

Tip: Don’t scrub hard as it will cause the stain to be driven further into the carpet.
