Is there a way to get arcylic paint out of clothes?

Answer 1

Once its dried it rarely comes out with out the clothes getting damaged. Usually its best to get it out while its still damp with water and soap. Sometimes acrylic paint will peel off depending on the consistency and so you can try to scrape it off. Turpentine usually only works for oils, at least in my experience. But what kind of acrylic paint is is? Artists' pallet paint? Student art paint? Craft paint? If its any of the higher quality artist and professional paints you might as well forget it but if it's some of the cheaper stuff sometimes it comes out because it has less acrylic in it. Craft paint really doesn't come out because its usually designed for all kinds of surfaces and textures and to be permanent.

Answer 2

I assume you are talking about artist's grade acrylic? If so then your clothes are coloured for good. Acrylic is a plastic and once it dries there is no getting rid of it. When the paint is still wet then you can wash it off with water. While acrylics are wet they are still soluble with water, add a bit of soap to help remove the paint. Some say that mineral spirits will take it out. I know as an artist you have a better chance of getting dried acrylics out with a pair of scissors than anything else.
