SPIT ON IT!

¡tontos de abril!

Nail polish remover, but test it on an inconspicuous place on your jeans first to make sure it does bleach the color out. Good luck!!

Use acetone nail-polish remover on the spot, after testing first on an inconspicuous area of the fabric. Drip it on slowly, working from the wrong side of the fabric. Blot as needed. This is a process that takes time, so when you're tired, stop and return to it at a later time. When the color is out, launder using a laundry pre-spotter.

Why don't you just leave it on there I see people wearing jeans with paint on them it looks cool and fashionable.
