This is most basic way to remove paint from denim. Start by removing as much paint as possible with a dull knife. Then, mix some water and dish soap in a bowl. Soak a soft cloth or sponge in the mixture and gently rub into the stain.
Mix a solution of 1 tablespoon of detergent and 1 tablespoon of ammonia with 1/2 cup of warm water. Soak a soft cloth or sponge in the mixture and dab at the stained area. Use a second clean cloth to remove the mixture. Repeat as necessary until the paint stain is gone.
Create a paste of equal parts of vinegar and baking soda. Rub the paste into the paint stain. Allow it to sit for a few minutes and then rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
If all else fails, rubbing alcohol can often do the trick. Dab a cloth in rubbing alcohol and gently massage the stained area. Rinse with cold water and repeat as necessary.
