Hope this helps!
If the polish is still wet:
Use a paper towel to absorb as much as you can (just lay it lightly on top). If the damaged item is a blouse, make sure none of the polish seeps through to the other side of your shirt by layering paper towel under the stain. Then, use polish remover the same way you would on carpet. If the polish smear is small, try using Q-Tips instead of a rag.
If the polish is dry:
As a first step, try holding an ice pack on the patch of polish. The cold should make the lacquer harden to a point of brittleness and contract a little so it's easier to break up and scrape off. You can also try picking the bits off with a pair of tweezers or brushing them gently off with an old toothbrush (if it's in tiny flecks). After you've gotten off as much as you think is possible, use the acetone Q-Tip or rag-dabbing technique up top.
Note: Is your item made of acetate or another lab-created fabric? DO NOT USE POLISH REMOVER; IT COULD DISSOLVE YOUR CLOTHES. Take them to a dry cleaner instead—they have access to a bunch of solvents we lesser mortals can only buy in the sketchiest corners of Amazon.
