Got stains that won't come out of your sink? Use nail polish remover on a cotton ball and it will come right off, no matter what the stain. By Anna K. Editor's Note: This would work on a porcelain sink but acetone might damage other types of surfaces.

CAUTION - READ THIS FIRST:
Once I dyed my hair in the sink and stained it, (oops). I cleaned up the best I could with a bleach cleaner. Later one teeny tiny spot remained. I put dab of nail remover on a Q-Tip swab and it looked soo pretty and clean!
Well, here's the thing. 3 HOURS later, my roomate (homeowner) and I were watching a movie when we heard popping
sounds from bathroom. The sink literally blew up. It sent slivers of porcelain everywhere and it was sharp and found days later in odd places. OUCHIE!
So take this warning and, do what you will, be careful.
I could not think of ANYTHING!!! I was painting my nails with nail polish and all the sudden the bottle FALLS :( i could'nt think of ANYTHING! So i looked on my computer and found this!
I you have a plastic or fiberglass sink, you may very well MELT the top coating of the sink if you use nail polish remover. Anna didn't say what kind of sink she had. I just wouldn't do it, there are too many other remedies
Be very careful doing this. I ruined our brand-new marble sink by getting nail polish remover on it!
but wont the nail polish remover discolorate your sink? Can you use it on your counter top?
If you have a normal plain white sink like in dorm rooms it works very well I did do the bleach thing and it was the bleach that made the sink act up. Thanks so much I would have been in so much trouble for the nail polish.
No, it did absolutely nothing for my sink, so disappointed. Will try finding other home remedies.
Nail Polish remover does not remove every singles Stain. I use nail Polish remover on most stains, but I have finally found one common it is from hair dye, that nail Polish remover will not take out and I am trying to find what will.
