How does one remove oil paint from blue jeans?

throw them out and but a new pair ... once oilpaint dries, it almost impossible to get it out...good luck!!How does one remove oil paint from blue jeans?
if oil paint still damp, first soak local area in soapy water, then may try turpentine and or paint brush cleaner, scrub off carefully with hand scrubber brush, rinse and soak some more, then scrub until mostly gone, rinse then wash normal in machine,


if all ready hardened, may not be to easy without damaging color of material and material itself, but same method, and soak cleaners longer,


..How does one remove oil paint from blue jeans?
Get some Phelts Naphta soap at your grocery store, Wet the pents where the stain is work the soap in and wash. It works on wet paint and usually on dry too. But the dry paint is a lot harder to get out.
Rubbing alcohol, soak the spot and massage between your fingers to loosen the paint. Repeat as necessary then follow up with a strong soap and water or stain pretreater before washing.





If this is a frequent thing buy some Ugly Dog brush soap. It works wonders for taking old oil paint out of brushes and anything else. You can find it at http://www.dickblick.com or http://store.studioproducts.com/home.php
