    i'm sure i heard that if you put a fresh coat of polish on a nail, then wipe it straight off with a tissue, it brings both coats off

    Not tried it myself, so i can't tell you if it works!!

    This worked a treat! Thank you. And I didn't have to resort to the angle grinder;)

    I've run out of nail polish remover/acetone.

    What can I use instead?

    Also hair spray works. Spray some onto your fingers and wipe off very quickly. It's not brilliant but will work in a pinch ;)

    One I discovered by accident...add a second coat of nail varnish and wipe off immediately and it takes the undercoat off as well.

    There's an earlier thread with more ideas:

    I'll add this thread to that one tomorrow to keep the ideas together.
