Naphtha, paint thinner, Coleman fuel, petroleum distillates (all the same stuff) works much better than acetone.

I frequently had “cocked” valve stems until I took care to evenly stretch both sides of the tire.

I try to to get the tire totally flat (zero air) then stretch it on the rim, center the tire before adding air (minimal glue contact at this point) then inflate.

Took me a few times to get it right, so good luck
