Things You Need
- A cotton swab
- A non-abrasive sponge
- White vinegar
- Water
- Non-acetone nail polish remover
Instructions
- Use a cotton swab to carefully and gently dab at stained area until no more nail polish appears on the swab. Try not to scrub or press too hard or you risk damaging the fabric.
- Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a bowl. Soak the non-abrasive sponge in the mixture, then use it to rub at the stained area. Try not to scrub too hard.
- If the stain remains, apply a small amount of non-acetone nail polish remover with a cotton swab. Make sure you dab gently, instead of rubbing or scrubbing.
- Rinse the affected area with plain water until all traces of the nail polish remover have been removed.
- If the stain still won't come out, it may be best to take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who specialize in silk garments.
