I thought most nail varnish removers contain acetone, and it can melt plastic.

Charlie, Warped; Spot on!

So my memory is still in tack -

10+ years back i was working on a 'private yacht' and got paint on my ray-bans and used some acetone (neat) to remove it, yep it removed the paint - but f'd my sunnies. ;)
