Title: How to remove Irn Bru and Fake Tan
Post by: Keith Smith on July 04, 2012, 07:12:30 pm

Anybody have a good idea of an efficient remover for Irn Bru and fake tan?  Job is a small series of drips of fake tan and a little spill of the juice.  I have heard that some citrus based spotters are good but any advice welcomed.  Cheers

I would use dye gone but be very careful it's strong stuff always have your machine set and ready to flush it out if it starts to go wrong, do not leave it unattended.

Nail polish remover for nail polish. Make sure it's not the fake nail polish remover as that doesn't work on nail polish.
