Getting spray paint off of skin?

Question

How do you get spray paint off of your skin?
My adventurous 3 year old thought it would neat to spray black paint all over himself. I have given him 2 baths and it still won't come off.
Anyone have any tips?

thanks everyone, I had rubbing alcohol on hand and used that, it worked pretty well. The paint was mostly on his hands, arms, and legs.
I'll leave the best answer up for voting, since I cannot choose.

Wash him once or twice per day over the period of 3 to 4 days. It aught to be off by then. Srpay paint doesn't come off so easily.

Answer 4

If its all over he needs to see a doctor. Your skin needs to breath, and there have been incedences where unknowing people actually died or were hospitalized from being covered in non-breathable paint such as spray paint.

Fast orange could work, or wait a day and let the oil from his skin naturally loosen the bonds

Answer 5

You might try a little bit of nail polish remover on a cotton ball and see if it works.....test a small spot to make sure it does not irritate his skin. If it removes the paint, immediately wash the area to remove any irritants.

I think it just has to wear off. Isn't that how people catch vandals- because they still have it on their hands? What a mess!

try vitamin E oil, my son got nail polish on his face and i didn't want to use remover there. SO my friend recommended the oil and it worked like a charm.
