Nail Polish remover doesn't dry greasy. It dries like alcohol.

What would be the best way of cleaning the plastic....alcohol and a match disinfects well :P

So is there an easy way to determine what will be removed by nail polish, and what will remain? Will it take off everything but the base plastic?

[dak]

all paint will be removed, along with the gloss coat. what would be left behind is the plastic. It will not remove the color from plastic.

Interesting to say the very least...
