Q&A for How to Get Paint Out of Jeans

Try using vegetable oil and shortener. It loosens up the chemicals in the paint, and it should come right off.

If it is a denim jacket, use rubbing alcohol; if it isn't, there isn't anything you can do.

Use paint thinner or acetone. Take a toothbrush or rag and rub the jeans vigorously until the stain is removed.

Use some rubbing alcohol (which my discolor the fabric) to soften the spray paint, then dab it with warm water. Put it in the washer.

Firstly, treat it as though a latex paint. If you are unable to remove the paint in traditional manner, you are likely dealing with an oil based product. However, you want to put as few products/chemicals on your clothing so starting with assuming it's water based would be best. There are graffiti removal products available at Home Depot, etc., that can be used very effectively. I paint holiday windows all year and find those products very helpful.

Try this: 1 quart warm water, 1/2 teaspoon liquid dishwashing or laundry detergent, and 1 tablespoon ammonia for 30 minutes. Rinse well. If stain persists, soak in a solution of 1 quart warm water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar for 1 hour. Rinse well with water and allow to dry.
