My missus has dropped a blob of red nail polish on her white jeans :Doh:! Is there anything that will remove nail polish?
And before you comment Mo, it's NOT my nail polish!:Tongue1:

Cut it out, then fray, all the rage with some:Smile:


If you use ACETONE nail polish remover the stain will only spread, we found that out the hard way:Sad:

Hmmm, anything you use on them is likely to cause the polish to spread making more of a mess, unfortunately I doubt it you can remove it without leaving a trace of some sort.

I've had a google and came up with an unusual one though, using Avon 'bug' spray apparently could help!

Or even hairspray!

Was a newbie, now a Middie.
Same thing happened to my wife's mother. Told her my blowlamp would do the job. Got through three gas cartridges, but she still wouldn't burn.
Best chance I ever had........:winky:

since 2006 ( I think ! )
As many made made fibres disintegrate when acetate is used on them, how about putting a couple of sparkly bead things on the blob ( held in place with a further we dab of the same varnish )

Simple, no risk of damage and at the moment quite fashionable

Depends where the blob is, of course. . . been in similar situations with jeans and sweaters. Buy small embroidered symbolly thing ... eg. a smiley.... and iron/sew it over the blob.

Failing that buy a big bottle of red nail varnish and make other blobs around it into a pattern.... The trend for this coming spring is slashed jeans at the knees so if on the knees problem solved.

Buy her a new pair,,,,,, tight sod.... :RollEyes::ROFLMAO:

A new pair? I don't think so! I have only just bought these for her, well, when i say only just, i mean about seventeen years ago.
I mentioned cutting the legs off above the 'blob', but as it's near the groin, there willn't be much left. :Blush:

It'll depend if the polish has soaked in to the material.
Try shoving the jeans in the freezer for a couple of hours, then when the nail polish is frozen, it may come off in one lump, with the aid of a blunt edged knife. Works a treat on chewing gum. :winky:

Cheers,

Jock.

Aha! A sensible answer! Too late, it has spread trying to get it off, but, i will shove her in the freezer soon, and see what happens.
