Spilled nailpolish on keyboard- it is working

Hello. I spilled some nailpolish remover (ingredients : acetone, avocado oil, coconut oil, olive oil, fragrance, denatonium benzoate, yellow 11, green 6, benzophenone-1) on my MacBook Air yesterday around 5p.m.

I flipped it upside down and open immediately. I turned it on today at 11a.m. and it's working fine. Two of the keys are sticky but they still work and it booted up fine.

I'm reading in this forum that nailpolish remover leaves flammable traces but does this mean my computer might light on fire? Acetone doesn't leave a residue so I'm not sure how people were claiming this in previous responses.

I've turned my computer back off and upside down and open but if it's working fine when I turn it on later today is there still much of a risk of additional damage? I feel like whatever damage would have been done in 24 hours will be the extent of it, is that true?

Thank you.

Well the flammable ingredients evaporated. I’d wait a day before using it. There’s not much you can do at this point except to wipe off any remaining residue with a soft cloth or paper towel. It may be just fine. If it does damage the keyboard circuitry, that is a problem for another day. “Therefore don't worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

I don't think there's much risk of fire at this point if it's working normally. The flammability warnings are more for immediately after a significant spill. But acetone can be corrosive over time so you'll still want to get the laptop professionally cleaned to remove any leftover traces. Then continue monitoring it closely.
