Even the nail polish remover with acetone is loaded up with oil and perfume.
You are much better off buying a
small bottle of regular acetone and keeping it near where you use the ACC
("superglue") glues (for emergencies
like Erik's). It is not expensive, but you may have to look a little harder to
find it - it won't be on the
shelves of your grocery or discount department store. Fortunately, a little
goes a long way, but you have to
keep it sealed tight - it evaporates very fast.
