    Yes you can do two things –
    First – get some goop brand hand cleaner and a pair of rubber gloves – just the really cheap thin kind – turn the gloves wrong side out all up the finger tips and fill them with the Goop brand hand cleaner (available at Safeway stores, some auto parts stores and on line) then put them on right before you go to bed – making sure the nails are covered with the Goop. Wear over night and then wash with good soap the next morning.

    OR
    You can sit with your fingers in a bowl of straight laundry Chlorine bleach for 20-30 min and they will be gone – however, the bleach will really make your nails brittle so I would recommend washing hands good and then setting with them submerged in cooking oil for 10-15 min.

    I recommend the Goop brand treatment though sometimes it takes several nights in a row if they are really yellowed.

    Hope this helps you!

    haha i bleach my feet and then scrub then with soap. then if theres cracks in the nail i pick it and file it down…
    its worth a try..

    Eh, not really. If it bothers you, in the future, use a bottom coat to protect your nails from the polish. Otherwise, just go and put on some other polish over the stains.
