End of Life Instructions

  • Clean and Recycle (Glass Only):
    1. Empty the bottle: Pour out the remaining polish onto a scrap of newspaper to dry.
    2. Clean with remover: Add acetone or nail polish thinner to the bottle, shake it, and pour the contents onto a paper towel. Repeat until the liquid is clear.
    3. Separate components: The glass bottle can be placed in your recycling bin, but the brush and plastic cap should be thrown in the trash.
