Unfortunately most nail polish removers are scented and/or contain "moisturising oils" which prevent the acetone from working as a surface cleaner (I found this when I bought nail polish remover for clean/degrease wooden arrow shafts prior to gluing on the plastic vanes). I ended up buying a half-litre tin of straight acetone from Bunnings, which should last quite a while since I only use it for that purpose. I emptied the nail polish remover bottle, rinsed it with acetone, and now use it to hold a small working quantity from the tin. BTH -- Posted at www.usenet.com.au

Theo ********************************** True Theo, but most nail polish removers have oil in them, you have to buy the remover without oil
