Method 2 Acetone One of the most effective means is acetone. Using it is as easy as using gasoline — carefully apply a paint stain with a cotton swab moistened with a cotton swab. Next rinse gins under water and wash in the usual way. Acetone can corrode even the dye of clothes, therefore it is better to remove stains from this method only from light-colored trousers. Check how acetone behaves by putting it on an inconspicuous area of clothing. If the fabric has not changed color - feel free to use. |

If the stain has eaten
The easiest way to clean jeans from recent pollution. If you need to remove paint that has already ingrained, then detergent will not be enough and you should use stronger substances.
I will describe the process step by step so that you deal with the problem with your own hands.
Step 1: Soak

To make the stain soften, you can use regular glycerin:
- dilute 1-2 teaspoons of glycerin in a glass of water;
- Moisten the contaminated area with plenty of water.;
- after half an hour, you can begin to withdraw.
If glycerin is not at hand, and you need to wash the thing urgently, soak jeans in a soapy solution.

If the dried layer is thick enough, you can scrape it off with a knife first. Take a knife with a blunt blade, so as not to tear the product, and carefully remove the dried paint.

Step 2: Stain Removal
To remove the old stain from jeans, choose concentrated stain removers or pure gasoline. Laundry soap, powder or dishwashing liquid are unlikely to cope with such a challenge.

If you want to remove the ink, use regular alcohol. They need to process the stain and leave for a few minutes. After that, jeans can be washed, preferably by hand, to more thoroughly work out the contaminated area.

If the ink is badly eaten, mix the alcohol with glycerin, this will soften the fibers of the fabric, and the stain will be easier to remove.
Step 3: wash the pants
After hatching, rinse the gins in warm water to wash off the remnants of all cleansing emulsions. Then wash the jeans manually or in a typewriter machine.
