There are times when everything escapes me from my hands. A little stress, a few annoyances, and an Online Fashion Store get clumsy like never before.
And this period is right now. A while ago, I dropped a varnish (one of my favorites - the Metallic Sand from Korres - otherwise it's not funny), on the tiling of my bathroom. Until then, nothing dramatic, a little solvent on the floor, and you. Except that I realize in the process that the left leg of my jeans has taken a nice streak of varnish in passing.
And not a small localized spot, no (otherwise it's not funny, twice), a real trail that goes from below the knee to the back of the pants.
I googled, tried several methods without believing for a second, and then found that ... I had succeeded. Not a single trace of varnish left on my pants. I managed to remove a stain of varnish on a fabric
I did not take a photo during the process, and for good reason: I really did not think it was catchable.
In my misfortune, it was a nude varnish ( Metallic Sand by Korres ), I imagine that a red varnish would have been even more difficult to remove.
Except that. The same misadventure happened to me a few days ago (yes, it's tiring to be me). This time I took some photos, it was a beautiful blue-green glitter varnish.
Challenge Accepted!

First of all, forget the method "I rub with my solvent". Apart from distributing the task, you will gain nothing at all. The varnish is embedded in the fabric, it will be necessary to take out the heavy weapons.
So: pure acetone. It is a product to handle with care, so wear gloves and use it in a ventilated place (I went downright to do this on my terrace).
It is necessary to soak the stain of the product and to tap with an absorbent paper type paper towel, paper towel. First test on a small part because acetone can discolor certain tissues.

Then we take out the iron or a steamer. And while still paying very close attention to toxic vapors (wear a mask, ventilate well, or if you have a terrace, do it outside), we soak, we put the paper towel, we put the iron and we look the color will gradually transfer.
It is not done all at once, you have to repeat the operation until the paper towel comes out white.
Once that seemed good to me, I soaked the large area of my magic stain remover soap (if you don't know, you must have this) with beef gall (found in organic stores) then I went to the machine.
I prayed to the goddesses of C'est du Propre in front of an altar composed of incense, baking soda, and white vinegar during drying, then came the time for the verdict: mission successful.
No longer a single, same wave, stain.
So I lost my favorite polish but not my favorite jeans and that's cool. Know that on the other hand, I had a lot more trouble on a light gray sock which was also stained: it was very very long to remove the material having absorbed the varnish more.

FYI I started by trying with ammonia as advised on some sites: success close to nothing. Ditto for the White Spirit.
Of course, pay attention to the material of your garment, some do not support acetone or a hot iron ... it will be very difficult in this case (unless the stain is very small).
