Wipe/dry the beer off(?) my pants

(I've spilled beer on my pants)

So I went to the bathroom and tried to wipe/dry the beer off(?) my pants.


What would be the most natural way to write the sentence? Thanks.

anonymous What would be the most natural way to write the sentence? It depends on what you did in the bathroom. If you got a wad of paper or a towel and pressed it on the beer area repeatedly, you tried to blot your pants dry.
