Have you tried Boots or other chemist shops? They are more likely to have it I would have thought.

Here in the US you can get it almost anywhere, at any hardware store, home improvement stores, lumberyards, auto repair shops, paint stores, grocery stores, and most chain stores in the paint department . There should be UK stores that are similar.

I'm in the US but I got mine from Sally's Beauty Supply which is a
shop that sells beauty supplies such as products for hair, and nails
(nail polish remover).

Do a Google search (www.google.com) for 'acetone UK' and several
things will come up. Or you could search 'acetone remover UK.'
Search any words that you think may be on such a companies webpage.
