Dessimat0r Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Well, I think you should pay for a new laptop if you damaged it. It became your responsibility when you took it from your friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A1Capone Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 1st of all... :boo: :trout: Unless it's on the screen, get a nice kick-ass sticker, and tell him that he's now a cool guy with nice sticker on his laptop... :whistle: otherwise...

kitteny_berk Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 the chances are that the acetone (polish remover) has eaten (or bleached) whatever paint or dye that was covering the plastic. basically, it's screwed you gotta A) be honest, hope your mate's ok about it B) lie, get busted and killed by your mate C) be honest, see if you can make it up to him and replace whatever bit you killed.

Now thers a big white smear over where the marker word had been. Is there any way to remove the nail polish remover stain? Or do i have to paint over it? It's not a stain. Nail polish remover is nothing more than weak acetone, which melts plastic. The white that you see is where you have melted the plastic of the laptop. It cannot be restored.
