Answer 1

Try the dry powder that they use to clean paint brushes. I think it's called "T.S.P." That will soften the paint so that you'll be able to wash it out.

Answer 2

Paint remover

Answer 3

denatured alcohol. Ive heard vodka works too. probably needs to be 100 proof. but for a good pair of jeans Id try any thing

Answer 4

how about lestoil cleaner in stores everywhere near pinesol and other cleaners or paint thinner and wash immediately alone small load

lestoil works on food and grease stains too
