how do u get spray paint off of wooden walls?

Question

theres lots of spraypaint in my room on the wooden walls. how do i get it off?

Answer 1

The Lowes answer may be correct, but have never tried it. Spray paint is different from brush on in that it permeates the wood fibers a little more, especially if it is sprayed on heavily.

Sanding can work, using large grit to begin with and moving to smaller grit paper, but how much you can get off depends on whether or not there are corners, grooves, etc. Steel wool with a paint remover may work as well, but be sure to wear rubber gloves when you do it.

Answer 2

I agree with the paint remover from Lowes or any hardware or paint store. They have all different types. Be sure you buy a product that is safe to use indoors or else you will need lots of vent elation. Be sure to get a product that will work with Oil based paint as most spray paint is oil based. Also get a paste or gel product that will stick to the wall. The liquid kind would not work as well on the wall. You also may need a wire brush or scraper to remove the paint once it starts to loosen up.

Answer 3

Try the product called "GOOF OFF' being it's a wall I'd & will run down try putting it on a white rag {dye will come out of colored] & rub. IT comes in spray & liquid at paint stores

Answer 4

Lowes sells paint remover that will safely remove paint from wood. It has citrus added to it.
