ok...this sounds like a weird solution but i've tried it and it works....you'll need the same polish that you used before and toilet paper or tissues. Ok, so repaint your nails and before it dries, wipe it off with the toilet paper or tissues. Both coats will come off.

Fingernail polish and automotive paint are the same thing. Only difference is nail polish has glycerin added for shelf life.
Normal polish remover is just acetone, a product used in automotive and many other places. The clear you put on your nails is just like auto clearcoat for cars.
Saying that... to remove nail polish w/o chemicals... just look at automotive items. There are hand cleaners out there for auto painters that are non toxic and remove such items from hands. Permetex is one of these makers.
Just a matter of scrubbing your hands as if you were washing them and it will come right off. Since its on your nails, maybe a fingernail brush to help get the corners. Won't dry out your hands or cause them to be rough. Used it for years.
I do auto paint work, and about 10 yrs ago I was looking at starting a nail polish company. Was trying to invent the instant dry polish. But Revlon beat me to the punch so I stuck with just auto paint.
So the next time you get a chip on your car.... nail polish is fine to use no matter how many men scream at you. Actually you are doing more good than they are w/ their store bought touch up paint bottles. I won't even get into how wrong that stuff is.

Paint a fresh coat (any color- but clear works best) on your nail, let sit for 5-10 seconds and then wipe your nail off with a wet wash cloth (cotton balls works too, and are less messy- but take a little more effort than a wash cloth)
After doing this to each nail, wash and rinse your hands (paying close attention to your nails) in hot soapy water.
Use a nail file (electronic preferably) on the tops of your nails to scrape off any left over polish.

Answer
One nail at a time, use a clear nail polish or a light/sheer color and paint over the nail color you want to remove. Then, immediately use a paper towel to wipe off the nail you just painted. Continue until all polish is removed.
Answer
You can try and pick off the nail polish first, and then mix palmolive with water and scrub off remaining polish.
Answer
use peel off nail polish instead.
Answer
Acetone. It's harsh, but does the trick. Nails breath and that's how they grow so women should only put nail hardner (if they have weak nails) just up to the white moon of the nail (the moon is what breaths.) When you want to put nail color on (don't have it on all the time) then you can cover the moon of the nail.
NOTE: ACETONE IS NAIL POLISH REMOVER!
Answer
rubbing alcohol, paint thinner, lacquer thinner, turpentine, kerosene, lighter fluid, mineral spirits most slovents.

If I have none I just put another coat of varnish on them and wipe it off while it is still wet - depending on the colour you are trying to remove you might have to do this a couple of times

Pick it off or add a fresh coat then wipe off the wet paint immediately. Not as good as proper remover but ok in an emergency. Oh and I discovered (accidentally) this summer that DEET insect repellant removes nail polish.

You don't. You must remove polish remover.

Rubbing alcohol works well. Make sure you don't have any small cuts around your fingers though.
