Washable Sidewalk Paint on Washable Fabrics- Fresh Stains

Remove stains from unwashable fabrics with a damp sponge or consult a professional dry cleaner.

To make the paint easier to remove, wet the paint and wait five (5) minutes.  Spray area with the highest setting on a garden hose nozzle, as close to the paint as possible and at a slight angle.  If any stain remains, wet the area and brush with a stiff bristle nylon brush or broom.  Rinse away completely to prevent paint from redepositing on the surface.

Rub or brush dried paint from fabric. Wipe off wet paint with a damp sponge or paper towel. Wash in hot water with laundry detergent for about 12 minutes (use heavy soiled setting if there is no minute timer on your machine) and rinse in warm water. Repeated laundering may be necessary.

1. Brush, scrape and rinse as much of the paint from the surface as possible. 2. Soak in a solution of 1 quart warm water, ½ teaspoon liquid dish soap and 1 tablespoon ammonia for 30 minutes. 3. Rinse with water. 4. Soak in a solution of 1 quart warm water and 1 tablespoon vinegar for one hour. 5. Rinse with water. Allow to dry. 6. For delicate fabrics, apply alcohol and cover with a pad dampened with alcohol. Let stand as long as stain is being removed. Change pad as it picks up stain. Keep stain and pad moist with alcohol and blot occasionally with clean absorbent material. Continue as long as any stain is being removed. 7. Rinse with water. 8. If any stain remains, use chlorine bleach as directed in step 9. 9. Chlorine bleach should not be used on certain fabrics. Test an inconspicuous area of fabric to be sure it will not be discolored. Use a solution of 1 teaspoon bleach to 1 tablespoon of water. Apply with a dropper. Do not allow this solution to remain on the fabric more than 2 minutes. When the stain is removed, or after 2 minutes, flush with water onto clean absorbent material. Apply 1 teaspoon of vinegar and again flush with water. Be sure that all bleach is removed. 10. Wash in hot water with laundry detergent and Oxi Clean or Clorox 2 and rinse in warm water.

Rub away any dried paint with a soft cloth. Remove wet paint or any remaining stain with a damp sponge. If stain still remains, apply Soft Scrub with a soft cloth. Rinse.
