Wet Acrylic Paint

• 1). Scrape the wet paint off the fabric using a disposable spoon.
  
  
• 2). Turn the fabric inside out. Rinse the back of the stained fabric under warm water to dissolve as much paint residue as possible.
  
  
• 3). Combine 1 tsp. of warm water and 1 tsp. of liquid dishwashing soap together in a bowl. Mix the sudsy solution well.
  
  
• 4). Turn the fabric back so that the paint stain is showing. Douse a rag in the sudsy water and dab the stain. Rinse the rag repeatedly under running water to prevent transferring paint onto the fabric again. Lift as much paint from the fabric as possible.
  
  
• 5). Rinse the fabric under warm water.
  
  
• 6). Examine the fabric for lingering paint. If the paint remains, moisten a fresh rag with acetone-based nail polish remover. Dab the stain with the acetone-dampened rag until no further paint remains.
  
  
• 7). Rinse the fabric under warm water until all soap suds and nail polish remover are flushed out completely.
