Default source of acetone

acetone.


No, the remover is acetone. The acetate is the nail polish.


There may be acetone in it, but not much.

I got tired of paying a quid a time for tiny 50ml. bottles from a local
chemist, because cleaning out the expanding foam from the nozzle of a
can of foam filler uses up most of the bottle.

So I tried nail polish remover. It didn't work. At all.
