I've just read online that I can use nail polish remover. Would that be ok?

Thanks so much!! From your description, I think it's acrylic. Will white spirit get acrylic off? Thank you for the warning re paint stripper!!

Going to give the detail sander a whirl. Cheers, Folks!!

It's the stuff stuck to the window frame that I'm on about. It looks like it was originally white but is growing black mould. It has the texture of old chewing gum and is a bit of bugger to get off. I want to avoid using it like the plague if I can, but I'm not sure what it is. If you know...
