I'm guessing this is a fatality, but I consult the braintrust (just in case)...<br>
<br>
My daughter spilled nail-polish-remover onto the surface of her<br>
Chromebook (Acer c720)<br>
<br>
(acetone, water, propylene glycol, dymethyl glutarate, dimethyl<br>
succinate, dimethyl adipate, glycerin, gelatin, fragrance, denatonium<br>
benzoate, yellow #11)<br>
<br>
I know the standard advice for water (seal into a bag of rice, let sit<br>
for 2-3 days, try it) and have successfully revived electronica<br>
previously. I can speculate about the damage to significant<br>
resins/adhesives/etc that might render this a<br>
much-worse-than-an-ordinary-water-spill, but wondered if anyone here<br>
had any specific, certain knowledge that might have bearing...?<br>
<br>
<br>
Many thanks for any info/advice/etc!<br>
