Nail wraps

I bought some nail wraps after reading about them on here & been really pleased with them. But they’re beginning to look a bit worn at the tips now. How do you get them off? Do you have to soak them in acetate remover like with gel polish that you use with a lamp? I thought they’d just peel off but they don’t seem to want do that.
Any help please?

Regular nail polish remover should do it. Although I usually peel mine off.

Just holding soaked cotton ball on them will work but take a while.

Best way:
Pour a little remover in a sandwich bag
Put your fingers to the bottom of the bag and put the hand into a bowl of warm water (this holds the bag and remover against your nail
They'll peel off in a minute or two.

Thank you, that’s a nifty idea,never would have thought of that. So any remover, not just the strong acetate? The one I have is non acetate. Looked on YouTube but they make it look like you need to do the same as with gels, 20 minutes with the strong stuff & I thought the idea of these was that they didn’t ruin your nails the same. But they’re really stuck on even after a fortnight!

I found when I removed wraps my nails were weirdly soft. This doesn't happen with acrylics or powder dip. Any idea why?
