5. Give hair spray a chance
Yes, you read that right, we said hair spray! While nail polish remover is more effective on fresh stains, hair spray is your best shot for stains that have already dried. Use a bit of cold water to moisten the affected area, and then spray 10 to 15 pumps of your hairspray on top of it. To finish it up, add about three splashes of rubbing alcohol. Use a brush to scrub the stain, and consistently splash more cold water as you go until the stain is completely removed. Give this method a chance if you are trying to figure out how to clean a heavily stained carpet.
6. Dish soap might help do the trick
If you combine a mix of dish soap and warm water with any of the tricks we have given you before, you might be able to achieve the desired result. You can use any of the hacks we mentioned earlier to remove the stain and then use dish soap to finish it up and make it look good as new. This simple dish soap solution will help clean away any residual nail polish while removing any strong scent that might have been left behind.
7. What if nothing works?
