Well me being me in my infinite wisdom somehow manged to flip a piant pot in my hand while trying to pen it and catch it upside down, needless to say i lost more than half the new pot of boltgun metal on the desk, a tiny bit on the model i was painting but the majority of it ended up on my shorts, just thought i would share my minor sucsess story to saving my favorite shorts.
1. Waste no time, clean any urgent spills, i.e carpet, table with tissues or an other absorbent material.
2. Wasting no time run to the bathroom and get some tissues, paper towels, toilet paper, basically anything absorbent you dont mind getting covered in paint. In my case i used hand towels.
3. Wet the hand towel and get as paint of as possible, this will spread the paint over a larger area but its important to get it wet ASAP, keep rubbing unitl you cant get any more off
4. While you clothes are damp run to your laundry, strip off (yes i did, even with my milky white skin) chuck them in the washing machine and add some detergent (i used normal washing powder plus some napisan) if you dont mind doing a wash with only the affected clothes in set the machine to small load and select a hot wash. Note!: dont mix whites with your colours if your doing a hot wash or the colours will run.
5.Hopfully you got the same results as i did and your clothes are now at least 95% paint free
Any questions or just general ribbing feel free to comment
