If your wife has some polish remover just use that as it's fairly safe for any paint. Just wipe off the remover with a damp rag afterwards to get rid of the residue which may discolor the paint after a few hours if left on. Acetone will work even faster and also not that harmful to paint if you just use a Q-tip or some such on just the polish and not a big deal if it gets on the paint if you wipe it off quickly. Polish remover used to be just acetone years ago but mfrs saw a market in developing acetone with some conditioning oils and I'm not even sure what it is now, maybe non-acetone but takes longer.
