Hi does anyone know how of any way to get paint out of clothes? I've tried everything i can think of and nothing works!! I know the easiest solution would be to wear old clothes when painting, but i never seem to do it!! Any ideas anyone?!!

I know it depends on what type of paint it is. If you ring the persil careline they'll be able to advise you.

Unfortunately if the paint is acrylic based the only way to get it out is with warm soapy water while it's still wet. If it's vinyl turpentine/white spirits may get it out again, while it's wet.
