remove gloss?

Question

i dont have any white spirit, is there anything else that can use to remove paint gloss from my hands, and brush? any ideas

Answer 1

Nail varnish remover.

Answer 2

Castor (Fine) sugar and cooking oil rubbed into your hands should remove oil paint. As for the brushes put in a bucket of COLD water until you get white spirit. The water stops paint drying out,and its also a useful tip if you intend using the brushes over several days.

Answer 3

If the paint is wet:
A good bar of soap and warm water only for your hands, Petrol for the brush but be careful!! you could also use magic (or WD 40 as I like to call it).
If the paint is dry, just peel it off your hands, for your brush, I'm afraid it's only good for the bin...sorry

Answer 4

Yes, use Fairy luquid or another concentrated washing up liquid. Rub in like soap and then use a small nail brush it will glide off. 100% Hint of next time buy some barrier cream at local ironmongers.

All the best!

Answer 5

Warm water and liquid soap for the brush, thenwash through thoroughly,and for hands use the platsic sige of a pan scrub, gently you could also try rubbing in a little oil first

Answer 6

Tricky one. Repeated washing of your hands will evenutally wear it off.

Try soap and sugar - thats good for oil and grease.

The brush is a right-off, unless you wrap it tightly in a plastic bag to keep it wet, until you can pick up the white spirits.

hope you didnt get too much paint on the keyboared.

Answer 7

next time rub washing up liquid into ur hands before u gloss and let it dry, that way u have some barrier before u start.
i usually use fairy liquid and a scourer to get it of but it hurts if u rub to hard

Answer 8

Degreaser, or Eucalyptus oil

Answer 9

petrol ,careful you dont have any cuts on your hand or it will sting and it will make your skin very dry afterwards
