There are many kinds of solvents and thinners for paints, lacquers and enamels.
For best results it is wise to use the right one that is specially designed for the particular job.
The ingredients used to formulate nail polish thinners include Ethyl Acetate, Butyl Acetate and Toluene.
You could probably substitute acetone thinners for nail thinner.
Acetone is a colorless and clear liquid that has many uses in products such as nail polish remover, automotive lacquer and inks. Studies have shown that acetone has a relatively low toxicity level
Possibly the same with toluene based thinners.
Toluene is found naturally in crude oil and the tolu tree, toluene is also present in items such as fingernail polish, rubber and adhesives.
Turpentine can irritate the eyes and skin, damage the nervous and respiratory systems, and cause kidney failure.

Methylene Chloride is one of the oldest and most common solvents.
It is toxic and a suspected carcinogen
