How do I remove nail polish from the leather interior of a car?

A few years ago, the boss turned up at work with pink nail polish splattered across the white leather dash of a his wife's BMW after a ';business conference';. It was a great joke about the place for weeks.


The detailers used normal Acetone to remove the nail polish then Aloe Vera to clean and nourish the leather bringing back the original texture and lustre.


I have noticed recently that a lot of the leather refurbishment creams on the market use Aloe Vera to bring back the leather and fight off that worn look.


Mequiars have a leather cleaner and conditioner on the market that may be of interest to you.How do I remove nail polish from the leather interior of a car?
Carefully apply acetone to an unseen portion of the upholstery to check its resistance to the chemical.(same as nail polish remover) I personally would try and pick it off, and with any success there, mask around the area with tape and try a scotchbrite pad rubbbed lightly. Solvents such as acetone may tend to allow the color of the polish to amalgamate into the leather,permanately. By the way, vehicle owners manuals often do have very helpful hints for things like this under cleaning and care of the interior.How do I remove nail polish from the leather interior of a car?
Heat gun.....don't heat it up to the point that it liquidfies again....just enough to get it to the point where it is sort of carmalized......sticky to the touch.....you should then be able to peel it off relatively easily without worrying about the color bleeding onto the leather. Good suggestion though, perhaps painting your nails in a moving vehicle may not be the best idea.
I would use a diluted form of nail polish remover. Don't rub it either but blot the nail polish off. Rubbing with an alcoholic abbrasive on leather might do some damage and using a non diluted nail polish remover will discolor the leather.
I think you need to keep the nail polish applier out of the frikkin' car.
