I just got new sweatpants, and I accidentally spilled reddish pink nail polish on them. What do I do and how can I get it out?

This is a tough one...I have had some, but not a lot of luck--depends on the fabric....using an ice cube to "freeze" the polish then flaking it off with my nail file..very carefully so as not to put holes in the fabric. Challenge is sometimes the polish stains the fabric...and often that is what is almost impossible to remove.
Removing Nail Polish from Sweatpants
Step 1
Blot stained area with acetone
Step 2
Use cotton ball soaked with acetone to block underside of fabric.
Step 3
Stain will go to the cotton ball.
Step 4
Rinse and repeat as necessary.
Nail polish remover is the best for this type of problem but be sure the acetone will not harm the fabric before working it in.
The best way to do that is to put a small amount of remover on a Q-tip and dab the inside of the seam. Wait several minutes to see if it changes the color or harms the fabric in any way. You can also check this same way if you decide to try hydrogen peroxide.
Here is a website that gives excellent instructions and these should be followed as closely as possible.
