No the acetone does not sanitize it, it completely removes ALL glue and the brush is clean. I have had polish on my skin and it has never burned. The glue does not burn either. No matter where the cotton swab is touched it NO longer is sanitary and unclean to use on a client. I would never use that method. Sorry. Lynnette Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile

I'm saying you don't touch an open wound with a glue brush and then use it again on someone else. And you don't have to touch the ends of a q-tip with your fingers to pick it up. Q-tips used on open wounds should be left in the original conainer. Or if you want to get really technical, than use a steril gauze pad. What I'm saying is think like a doctor and use common sense. What I was referring to with the polish was that when you polish the nail that has an open cuticle, stay away from it with the polish. If you are touching the cuticle with the polish brush, it will burn and you are getting polish in an open wound. Again, common sense that's all. Wiping a glue brush with acetone after using it to brush glue on an open wound does NOT disinfect the brush.

The instant the Q-tip is taken out of the package and touched, it has germs all over it!!!!!!! That cotton swab is not a better solution. Now the laceration will have whatever I had on my/your hands enter the wound. Or even worse yet, whoever may have filed the Q-tip jar and anyone else who took one out.......

But remember, its not within our scope of practice to treat an open wound. Lynnette, seriously, do you get near open skin with nail polish?!!! We need to think like a doctors office. Do you think they would use a brush on a patient with an open wound and then use it on another patient? The simple solution is to dab the glue on a q-tip and apply the glue WITH the q-tip. But again, its not really our place to treat cuts. We need to use common sense with what seems to be a simple thing. Getting off my soap box now...

Michelle, if you clean it off with acetone it is fine. You would not be using the glue on a cut that is bleeding profusely.
