ok I just had a teacher at the school call me and one of her students put nail polish all over a stuffed owl she had in her room and put a hole in it. Now Im not a big bird guy so is there any ideas of how to get the nail polish off the feathers and fix the hole?

WOW!  That's a first for me...

Acetone is the main ingredient in nail polish remover I do believe.

I would be fired from that school, because there may be a few less students in the class after that. . .

Who mounted the owl?  Maybe the school can take it to that person for repairs.

I would also try to sell her on a plexi case for it. The plexi will keep it safe, and won't shatter if the kids try to mess with it again.
