Why doesn't acrylic wash off
Unlike other water-based paints, acrylic becomes insoluble once it dries. Unlike nitro enamels, acrylic is undemanding to primer, and dried acrylic paint cannot be removed with water; it can hardly be scraped off or sanded.
What to do
Refined gasoline, white spirit or acetone are quite suitable for this.
When starting to clean the product, you should first scrape off the bulk of the paint from the surface of the fabric.
Then, moisten a piece of cotton cloth in one of the listed substances, carefully rub the stained area, moving from the edge of the stain to the middle.
How to remove dried acrylic paint
Regular vegetable oil helps soften dried acrylic drops.
The stained area treated with it, after having been rubbed with soap, is soaked for a quarter of an hour in hot water, then any method of removing oil stains is used, while simultaneously getting rid of the remnants of the paint film.
