The fingernail test is for minerals and if a mineral is soft then you stick your fingernail in the mineral and if it is below 10 on the moh's hardness scale then it can put a dent into the mineral hope that helps!!
No, Fingernail Polish is used to paint your fingernails. Or else they would not call it fingernail Polish. If you were more than Likely to Use Fingernail Polish to Remove Warts, the Wart Would Not Remove. This is because, the Wart Continues to get bigger, as you leave the fingernail polish on.
The best way would be to take it to an expert, in this case a dry cleaner. If you don't want to do that, you could tryusing fingernail polish remover, but you should try it in a tiny, inconspicuous area first to see if it has any adverse effect on either the material or dye used in the comforter (if it's made of synthetics, there's at least a reasonable chance fingernail polish remover will dissolve the fabric).
I have had 5 surgeries and was told to take it off for all of them
No, to tell how hard a mineral is you either have to test it or determine what mineral it is. Testing uses materials of known hardness such as a fingernail, or copper penny, or scratch plate, if the mineral is scratched by whatever you use to test it is softer. Hardness however is not based on size it will be the same for any sample of the same rock no matter what the size because its based on atomic arrangement and bond type.
Besides sanding, grinding and scraping, you can remove Bondo from your clothes and other porous items with fingernail polish remover (acetone). Test the cloth in an inconspicuous spot before you try this because it will also dissolve some fabrics. You may need to let it soak for a while to soften it enough. Acetone evaporates very easily and is flammable so it would be best to do this outdoors. ZipStrip will also remove bondo but it is even more likely than acetone to destroy fabric...Test FIRST!
The Moh's scale is used to test the hardness of a mineral. It will be tested by a fingernail scratching it.
Have someone kick you in the face, hella hard.
nail, penny, your fingernail, or other rocks
The length of your index fingernail
Geologist perform a hardness test using their fingernail, a penny, and a paper clip.
A centimeter is about the width of a fingernail
The length of your index fingernail
Ongle is fingernail in French.
Mineral hardness is tested on a glass plate or usually a finger nail.
A mineral can be tested for hardness using a fingernail, penny, or nail, which are common items that serve as reference points on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness. For instance, a fingernail has a hardness of about 2.5, while a copper penny is around 3.5. If a mineral can be scratched by a fingernail, it is softer than 2.5; if it can be scratched by a penny but not a fingernail, it falls between 2.5 and 3.5. This simple test helps in identifying the mineral's hardness and assists in classification.
The rock type that can typically be scratched with a fingernail is sedimentary rock, particularly soft varieties like limestone or chalk. These rocks generally have a hardness of 2 to 3 on the Mohs scale, making them softer than a fingernail, which has a hardness of about 2.5. This property allows for easy scratching and is a useful field test for identifying rock types.
Onycho- is the prefix pertaining to the fingernail.
