Step 1: Use Rubbing Alcohol or Nail Polish Remover
If the paint stain on your bra is still fresh, try using rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover first. With a clean cloth, soak up some of liquid and gently dab at the stain. Work from the outside edge of the stain inwards, until the entire stain is gone.
Step 2: Spot Treat with Laundry Detergent
If the paint has set in, you'll need to use a stronger cleaning solution. Try spot treating the stain with laundry detergent, again working from the outside edge to the inside. Then, let the detergent sit on the stained area for a few minutes before rinsing with cold water.
Step 3: Toss Your Bra in Washer
After the stain is gone, be sure to give your bra a full wash. Pop it into a lingerie bag and wash on a gentle cycle, using cold water. Air dry the bra and your garment should be good as new!
Conclusion
Getting paint on your bra doesn't mean you have to throw away the garment - all you need are the right tools and cleaning techniques. A bit of rubbing alcohol, laundry detergent, and a machine wash is all it takes to get your bra looking brand-new again!
