Is it possible to get acrylic (not oil-based) paint out of jeans and cotton t-shirts too??
-
I was painting a house and I was purposely wearing a pair of pants that had a hole in the knee but I didn't expect to get any paint on myself until the tray of paint that was supposedly latched onto the step ladder dumped vertical all over my t-shirt and pants. I no longer have blue jeans...I have white jeans. Hehe. If I can't wash it out, no biggie, but I'm just wondering if it's possible since the paint isn't oil-based. I know for a fact that that stuff never comes out and if you get it on your hands you need paint thinner to get it off. With this stuff, you just scrub your hands with soap and water, even water alone does it. Any ideas?

Answer:
you can try cleaning them all you want but it is set for life . . that is why painters wear painting overalls . . . soaking your clothes in turpentine and gasoline will only ruin the fibers and the smell will be very hard to get out of the fabric . . chalk it up to a new look

soak it in terpentine. If it's a water based latex try hot water.

spray wd-40 on the spot let it set for 2 hours scrub off

If this happened to me, as you stated it is water based paint, I would just wash both items alone in the washer with Tide w/bleach and Clorox 2, agitate for the longest time in the washer and before the rinse cycle - check to see if or how much has come out. Go from there, either wash all over again or keep what you are left with. It should be removable. good luck
