What You'll Need

  • One teaspoon of liquid detergent or dish soap
  • A quarter cup of rubbing alcohol
  • Cotton swab, tissue paper or soft brush
  • White vinegar
  • A cup of warm water

Steps to Clean Nail Polish Stains from Your Kimono

  1. First, you need to scrape off the excess nail polish from the fabric with a knife or spoon. Make sure you don’t rub it as it might spread further.
  2. Once you’ve scraped off the excess nail polish, take a clean white cloth and soak it in rubbing alcohol. Now, gently dab this cloth over the stained areas to remove the remaining color.
  3. Now, take a quarter cup of rubbing alcohol and mix it with one teaspoon of liquid detergent or dish soap and blend it in a bowl or mug.
  4. Once you’ve mixed the solution, dip a cotton swab or tissue paper into it. Now, dab stained area with this swab or tissue paper.
  5. Leave the solution on stain for 15 minutes. Afterwards, dampen a cloth with warm water and gently rub the stained area.
  6. Once you’ve rubbed the stain, again dampen your cloth with warm water and rinse it off. Lastly, dry it by pressing it with a dry and clean cloth.

Additional Tips:

  • If you’re dealing with more stubborn nail polish stains, you can try using white vinegar. Simply dampen a cloth with warm water and vinegar and rub the stained area. Then rinse it off with warm water and press it with a dry and clean cloth.
  • Always remember to use a soft-bristled brush when cleaning your kimono. Hard-bristled brushes can damage the fabric.
