My science fair project is studying the flammability of nail polish. Can 
you suggest where I can find some background studies or information about 
the flammability of nail polish please?

Can you suggest how I can accurately (and safely) measure the flammability 
of nail polish please?

I have read the archived information about nail polish and also 
flammability of chemicals already, but need a little guidance on how to 
measure and demonstrate the flammability of nail polish.

Thank you in advance for any help you help provide me.
