Earlier today I stupidly applied glitter polish on my toenails right before I started my yoga class and apparently one of my nails hadn't fully dried yet and stained the back of my new workout leggings! I came here to try and find a solution and unfortunately we don't have any oven cleaner or acetone-free nail polish remover in the house at the moment, so my husband made a mixture of dishwashing liquid and white vinegar and applied it with a cotton bud to the stain. After a couple of minutes of gentle rubbing I rinsed it and it had lessened significantly! He continued applying and after the second rinsing there's almost nothing left. A few of the glitter grains even came off while I was rinsing. Hope it works for you!

Wow! This worked for me!! I had a spot of dried red nail polish on the back of my very light color, down filled nylon jacket. The polish was 'dry' before I put on my jacket.....apparently Not dry enough.
I mixed a couple drops of dish liquid and about a quarter cup of white vinegar. With one end of a q-tip gently worked it into the spot. Then used the dry end of the swab to draw out the stain. I also held a dry piece of dry kleenex on the underside of the spot, inside the jacket, which also helped draw out the polish. It took about 10-15 min, but that annoying nail polish spot is Gone! Rinsed it with a little water, blotted dry with a clean towel and poof! Jacket like new. Thank you So much for this great tip!.....thank your husband for his chemical knowledge!
