Yes. Paint thinner often contains acetone which is the dissolving agent in most major nail polish removers. Just be sure to use it sparringly and in a well ventilated area because paint thinner can be dangerous to have on your skin and to inhale. Be sure to moisturize afterwards; the oils on your skin are easily remmoved by the thinner as well as the nail polish.

Can you paint over fake nails?
Yes! You can paint over fake nails. I have done it many of times. What kills though is that if you want to take the nail polish off, it ruins the acrylic or nail. So the answer is yes, but be careful and pick a good choice of nail polish that you will keep on when having fake nails on.
Can you add multi purpose solution to nail polish for more in the bottle?
It will only thin the remaining nail polish, not give you more. It will not cover as you would expect it to, and will take longer to dry since multi purpose solution is not intended to dry quickly like the thinner in the polish.
How does it take until nail polish goes aways?
It depends what nail polish you use
Can you use lacquer thinner for cleaning used brush?
It may or may not be effective. Traditional lacquer is a nitrocellulose-based coating. Thinners for nitrocellulose include acetone and ethanol (drinking alcohol). Most nail polishes are nitrocellulose lacquers, and that's why acetone is used as a nail polish remover.In general, the rule for thinners is that you need to use the thinner that was originally used to make the coating, or which is sold to be a thinner for the coating. If what's on your brushes isn't lacquer, lacquer thinner may not work as well as a thinner designed for the coating, and it may not work at all.If you already have lacquer thinner somewhere, or some nail polish remover, why not try a little bit to see if it works?
Who makes the nail polish that cracks?
OPI makes it. - - - - - OPI was the company that "reintroduced" crackle polish, but now every nail polish company makes it. It is very easy to make: take regular nail polish and put some alcohol in it. There's already a solvent called ethyl acetate in nail polish. Alcohol and ethyl acetate evaporate at different rates, and this causes the paint film to crack. This would normally be bad, but with crackle nail polish it's the whole point of doing it.
