And if you have children the chance of nail polish saga has trippled in chance...
It is much easier to clean it from flat surfaces, such as tiles and glass, but when the carpet is involved the panic button is hit...
So once you get over the initial panic and get into clean-up mode here is what you do...
GET THE NON-ACETONE NAIL POLISH REMOVER, yes you read that right get out the nail polish remover and get to firstly testing it on an inconspicuous section of the carpet to make sure it does not affect the colour of the carpet. ( Make Sure its NON-ACETONE)
NON_ACETONE Nail Polish RemoverIf your first instinct is to reach out for the nail polish remover, you’re right. Nail polish remover can be used for removing polish from your carpet. 1. No need to cry over spilled nail polish! The most important thing to remember in your moment of terror is that you must not rub at the spot without first pre-treating it. 2. Avoid temptation, because scrubbing at wet nail polish with a cloth or paper towel will just distribute the polish across the surface and massage it further into the carpet fibers, forcing it to set in faster. 3.Keep your cool and follow these tricks to treat the unfortunate spill. Attempt this first: Soak a cotton ball with non-acetone nail polish remover and use it to lightly dab at the nail polish spill while it’s still wet. Alternate dabbing the stain with the cotton ball and a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb the remover and the loosening stain. Never saturate the fibers completely with the nail polish remover; only apply enough to dampen the spot, repeatedly dabbing with fresh cotton balls and clean cloths until the stain has lifted. If the stain has already dried, use the nail polish remover as a pre-treating solution to wet the stain, and then supplement with hairspray or dry cleaning solvents to provide extra power.
