Metho (methylated spirits) can help remove acrylic nails, but it's not the most effective method. Acetone is generally recommended for safely and efficiently removing acrylic nails. If using metho, soak your nails in the solution for a longer period, but be cautious as it might not dissolve the acrylic completely, and overuse can damage your natural nails. Always moisturize your nails and skin afterward to prevent dryness.
