Cotton Duvet Covers

my son decided to play around with my nail polish, problem is he decided to do it on my bed,ended up pouring half the bottle on the duvet cover and whats worse is that it’s red nail polish,please help me get rid of this ghastly mark as cheaply as possible

Just nail polish remover will do it. You need to soak it and then rub it in it though so get the affected area and put just that into a bowl/container of remover. Once you’re left with just the colour you could try washing up liquid to get rid of the last bits.

   try spraying hairspray onto it…..the alcohol in the spray should lift some (or most) of the stain

   a lot of nail polish remover , if you can accomplish pouring it through it . or take it to a dry cleaner they may have good tips
   or call a Quilt restorer.

   Your best bet will be nailpolish remover. Pour some good brand nailpolish remover on a cotton ball and try to wipe out the stain. Be patient and keep on rubbing, it will help remove some of the stain and if u keep on repeating, it will totally go away.(This is from my personal experience).

   Test a small area to make sure nail polish remover does not dissolve the fabric. If there is any nylon or acetate in the blend, the polish remover will melt it.

   Also try some Oops! or Goo Gone. Both are inexpensive and usually safe for almost all fabrics. Unfortunately, you may end up dying your duvet cover if it is a very large stain. I am so sorry!!

   Use Acetone which is stronger than nail polish remover. And is about the same cost.
