I know it's not the smartest thing to open a bottle of Acetone anywhere else than in the bathroom.... anyway it happened, and now I have this ugly spot on my keyboard! Any ideas how to get rid of it?

As always a bunch of helpful suggestions. 😛 Would scraping help?

Was it the keyboard to a laptop or a PC? If a lap you're screwed. If a PC, they are cheap enough to replace. Or you could just live with it. Did it destroy what letter or character that was the key or keys?

A new cheap keyboard is about $10 at Walmart.
The same keyboard cost the US Government 1 Billion.
