Dip a cotton swab in diluted liquid dish soap and gently dab it on the stained area to begin breaking down the nail polish. For tougher stains, add a bit of toothpaste to the swab before dabbing.
Take a soft cloth and gently rub away the dissolved nail polish. Continue dabbing with the cotton swab if needed. Do not press too hard, as this can damage the toy.
Once the stain has been removed, take the remaining dish soap and a damp cloth and clean the entire surface of toy to get rid of the residue. Be sure to rinse the cloth often, so there is no soap left on toy.
Gently dry the toy with a soft cloth after cleaning. To prevent water spots, be sure to get in all the crevices and cracks. Once the toy is fully dry, it should be free of any nail polish stains.
With these four steps, you can easily remove nail polish stains from your children's toys. Be sure to take your time when cleaning and drying the toy to avoid damaging it or leaving any residue behind. Happy cleaning!
