how do you get paint off your hands?

Question

deck staining

Answer 1

Turpentine

Answer 2

Time. You can use some solvents, or turpentine, but if you've really got the paint IN your skin(skin is porous, and absorbent), it'll wear off with time....clean up as best you can with some of the hand cleaners they've got out there, go get yourself a bar of Lava pumice soap, there's also stuff like go-jo, what the mechanics use. Have fun! LOL

Answer 3

If it is a water based enamel, warm water and soap and a little elbow grease will do the trick. If it is a oil based paint, you wil need to use mineral spirits or paint thinner. After that, you will need to use warm water, soap, and elbow grease. You should never use gasoline for fear of burning your skin, eyes, and you should never inhale gasoline fumes.

Answer 4

If the paint on your hands is latex based, it should come off with soap and warm water.
If it is oil based paint, you can remove it with paint thinner.
