Nail polish stains are one of the most difficult and stubborn stains to remove from clothing. If you don’t act quickly, they will set in and become almost impossible to get rid of. Fortunately, there are some ways to successfully clean nail polish stains from Paul Smith clothes.

Steps to Clean Nail Polish from Paul Smith Clothes

  1. As soon as you notice the stain, treat it with cold water. Make sure to avoid hot or warm water; this will only make stain more difficult to remove. If the stain is fresh and still wet, dab it with a clean damp cloth or paper towel.
  2. If the stain has dried, using a small brush or toothbrush, gently rub an absorbent detergent or cleaning agent into stain.
  3. Rinse the area with cold water after scrubbing the stain.
  4. If the stain remains, soak the fabric overnight in a solution made of laundry detergent and oxalic acid. Oxalic acid can be found in specialty stores and online.
  5. Wash the fabric with cold water according to the Paul Smith clothing label instructions.

If stain is still there after performing the steps above, you may need to take your garment to the dry cleaner. It’s important to note that some materials, such as silk and suede, require special treatment so make sure you consult the Paul Smith product care guide before attempting to clean the stain.

How to Avoid Nail Polish Stains on Paul Smith Clothes

While it’s inevitable that sometimes you’ll end up with a nail polish stain on your Paul Smith clothes, there are a few measures you can take to try to avoid it:

  • Apply a protective sealant such as Scotchguard to your Paul Smith clothing to reduce the chances of nail polish staining fabric.
  • Be extra careful when getting your nails done near your clothes; keep them away from the work area and covered with an apron or towel.
  • Always have a bottle of acetone-free nail polish remover handy. This can help remove any accidental marks or spots.

With these tips, you’ll be able to minimize the risk of getting nail polish on your Paul Smith clothes.
