Additional Tips for Cleaning Paint Stains

  • Be gentle when scraping paint off of fabric, as it can damage fibers.
  • Avoid using hot water on paint stains, as it tends to set the pigment into the fabric.
  • For heavier stains, use a brush and a diluted solution of laundry detergent to scrub away the paint.
  • For best results, always pre-treat stains before washing.
