Request: Nail Polish on Leather Furniture

Archived on 09/05/2009

Does anyone know of a way to get nail polish off of leather furniture? My son dumped a whole bottle on the couch.

You may be screwed. I would try wetting the area around the spot with "Neatsfoot" oil, a leather preservative. The idea would be to apply until the leather under the spot became saturated, hopefully destroying the bond and allowing you to carefully pick the dried nail polish off. You may be able to find matching leather dye to touch-up. (05/15/2009)

Get the polish and paint a new coat on the stain (dried up polish) and wipe off the coat (you applied over the stain) before it dries, gently. (01/30/2009)

How can I remove nail varnish from a leather sofa?

RE: Nail Polish on Leather Furniture

My daughter had got nail varnish on my black leather chair, put a little hairspray on a cloth rub gently and its gone. It didn't damage my furniture in any way. The furniture was a little sticky afterwards but I used a little leather cleaner and its now fine. (03/28/2008)

Dab a little bit of nail polish remover. But make sure not to rub otherwise the leather will come off. Hope this helps! (04/04/2008)

I spilled pink polish on my brown leather sofa. Hairspray took it of straight away. (05/18/2008)

I've just spilled clear nail varnish over my boyfriends mothers leather sofa. My instant reaction was to wipe it, which took the color off and has left a smeary white mark. The sofa is pale green so it's not too obvious but she has eyes like a hawk. Does anyone have anything that could help? Other than for me to leave the country? Jess from West Sussex

I tried 100% acetone and it will take off the polish, but it left my black leather ottoman looking dull. So it is noticeable, but better than bright pink nail polish. Also I tried rubbing alcohol first and that was almost worse taking off the black. (01/21/2008)

I have a problem, I splashed pink nail polish on the arm of my green leather chair and I can't clean it off I tried nail polish remover and scraping it off but neither of these worked it hasn't come off at all can someone help?

RE: Nail Polish on a Leather Suite

First, dab acetone (or a non-oily fingernail polish remover) on an inconspicuous area of the leather to test for colorfastness and to make sure no damage occurs. If there's no damage sponge the stained area with the acetone (or polish remover) until no more color is being removed. If acetone damages the surface, use amyl acetate instead. If this doesn't work, sponge with alcohol (test first). Hope This Works. (03/17/2006)
