[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1349323, member: 56379"] I would only use this method with EXTREME caution! Nail polish remover contains acetone (actually almost all acetone)...and acetone & plastic DO NOT mix. Get acetone on plastic...and you're looking for big cosmetic problems. Although acetone will not harm the metal exterior of MacBook Pro's...it will react with the plastic Apple symbol/logo on the lid...and acetone will also react with any other sort of plastic surface/part on the computer. Acetone will "melt"/soften/dissolve plastics...and you don't want this. - Nick [/QUOTE]
