Step-by-step Guide to Removing Washable Paint

The quicker you act, the easier it is to remove the paint.
Rinse the stained area with cold water as soon as possible. Avoid hot water, as it can set the stain.
Gently blot the stain, don't rub.

If the paint stain persists, you will need to pre-soak the garment. Here's how:

Prepare a solution: Mix Oxi Clean or Clorox 2® with water, following the instructions on the product packaging.
Submerge the garment: Fully immerse the stained clothing in the solution.
Soak for one hour: Allow the garment to soak for at least one hour. This helps to lift the stain from the fabric.

Wash as usual: After soaking, launder the garment using your regular washing machine cycle and detergent.
Air dry: Do not put the garment in the dryer. Let it air dry. Heat from the dryer can set any remaining stain, making it harder to remove.

Check for residual stains: Once the garment is dry, carefully inspect for any remaining paint stains.
Repeat the process if necessary: If the stain is still visible, repeat the soaking and laundering steps.

Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions on the paint and stain remover products.
Test the stain remover on an inconspicuous area of the garment first to ensure it does not damage the fabric.
Avoid using harsh chemicals, which might harm the clothing or irritate the child’s skin.
