Last time I needed some acetone I just bought nail varnish remover from
Superdrug. May not be 100% pure but it dissolved whatever it was I
wanted gone.

But I agree it could well dissolve the lenses too.

Ah yes acetone is available as nail varnish remover at the same price for
10cc that I pay for a litre..


if you're a diy-er only doing one job, you only need 10cc
