đź’… 10 Unexpected Ways to Use Nail Polish Remover Around the House
When you think of nail polish remover, chances are your mind goes straight to manicures. But did you know that this common household item — especially the kind containing acetone — can do so much more than remove old polish? It’s a surprisingly powerful cleaner and solvent that can tackle a variety of everyday challenges.
Here are 10 unexpected and clever ways to use nail polish remover around the house — just be sure to use it in a well-ventilated space and avoid using it on delicate or finished wood surfaces.
1. Remove Sticky Residue from Labels
Nail polish remover can dissolve adhesive left behind by price tags or stickers on glass, plastic, or metal. Just apply a small amount to a cotton ball and rub gently.
🧼 Perfect for reusing jars or cleaning up new purchases.
2. Clean Ink Stains from Hard Surfaces
Ink marks on countertops, tile, or plastic surfaces? A dab of nail polish remover can help lift them right off — but test a small area first to avoid discoloration.
🖊️ Especially useful for desk surfaces or school supplies.
3. Revive Old Nail Polish Bottles
Is your favorite nail polish getting clumpy? Add a few drops of acetone-based remover, shake well, and it’ll be smooth and usable again.

4. Sanitize Tweezers and Scissors
Nail polish remover’s alcohol and acetone content makes it great for disinfecting small metal tools like tweezers, nail clippers, or sewing scissors.
✂️ Quick and easy germ-fighting trick.
5. Clean Melted Plastic Off Appliances
Did a plastic spoon melt onto a hot stovetop or toaster? Once cooled, gently scrub with a cloth and a little remover to loosen the residue.
🔥 A lifesaver in kitchen mishaps.
6. Erase Permanent Marker
Believe it or not, nail polish remover can erase permanent marker from many non-porous surfaces like whiteboards, glass, or laminated materials.
🖍️ Ideal for accidental marker-on-the-wall situations.
7. Shine Up Patent Leather
A tiny amount of nail polish remover can restore the shine on dull patent leather shoes or bags. Just don’t overdo it — acetone can dry out leather if used excessively.
