Tom Ford Telma sunglasses for $2...waiting to see if a one can authenticate them. They have a bit of colour transfer on the frames. Anyone know if nail polish remover would get that off with damaging the frames?View attachment 4652878 View attachment 4652879 View attachment 4652880
Well i got the transfer off ..but I didnt watch the other side of the frames and the black now has a bit of fading in small patches...I can live with that as It wont be seen...its just dull. I would not have been able to live with the orange transfer.

I think that was actually make-up. Maybe you should have tried a make-up remover wipe or baby oil first.
But it looks like it turned out OK!
I washed first with something that gets rid of greasy marks and nothing came off...even with the acetone free remover it took some time to take off...I keep wondering what it was as it was orange both on top and bottom.
Is there an orange makeup..Im really asking here as I dont wear makeup much...and the makeup I have is probably a year old and not good.
 
Well, it kind of looked like my (regular prescription) frame where they touch my face. Top and bottom would be where the frames might touch the face (forehead and cheeks, especially when smiling?).
I never tried to clean my frame, but it is possible that some of the pigment does get into the material making very hard to remove.
