Acetone is a powerful solvent used to remove stains from grease, resin, glue, paint, ballpoint pen ink, correction fluid, varnish, copper oxide, lipstick, and nail polish.
Important cautions
Be aware that acetone can leave dull marks on surfaces like plastic, paint, and paper. It’s also not safe for certain materials. Avoid using acetone on acetate fabrics, acrylics, rayon, chlorofibers, plastics, and celluloid, as it can cause damage or discoloration.
