I have a tiny blob of dried paint on my new jeans. Is there any magic way of getting it off? :-(?

Question

The paint is the type that you use for painting wooden doors and frames

Answer 1

Use a dab of white spirit to avoid spreading & smearing it & then wash them

Answer 2

I'm not sure where in the world you are, but here in the UK, we have a product called "StainGone".......... it comes in different varieties for different types of stain, ie: theres one for ink, or oil, or paint etc, I've found them to be really good, & wont damage or fade a patch on your jeans.

You can probably get this, or a similar product in other countries too, check out your local Haberdashery shop, or department, or even perhaps a good hardware store.

Failing that, an oil based nail polish remover, to loosen the stain, & then dab with vinegar, & wash as normal,
this will work, but might take a couple of goes, & as its NEW demin, the dye is still likely to be "loose", so it might leave a "fade" mark, but this will eventually lessen after a few washes

good luck

Answer 3

Yes D & L waterless hand cleaner will remove dried on paint without harming the pants. Good luck.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Answer 7
