  1. try nail polish remover


  2. Look on the can.  Somewhere there is a product suggested for "clean-up"

  3. why would you spray paint shoes in a tub?????

    whats wrong with newspapers?????

      Have you tried Nail Polish REMOVER?????

    Plain old Alcohol????? Baking Soda and Vinegar????? Comet? Bleach????

    I think you may be DOWN the DRAIN...GET A NEW TUB!

  4. Go to the hardware store and buy some porcelain appliance paint and paint the tub.

  5. Scrub with comet cleanser.  Or use nail polish remover.  A scotch bright green plastic scrubby pad will take it off too, but will probably cause pretty bad scratches on a fiberglass or plastic tub.  A Magic Eraser pad might work without causing scratches, but I don't know if it is tough enough to get rid of that kind of paint.  I would try filling the tub with hot water and letting it soak a while before trying to clean it off too.  It might help to loosen the paint's grip before you try to remove it with any of these other methods.

  6. Easy way take a rag with some goof off that should get it right out

  7. Spray paint can be easily removed with several solvents. If your tub is metal, and has the original porcelain finish, (older tub, never been repainted), any thing like acetone, (nail polish remover), or goof off, will remove it. Test in a small area first to see if it softens the finish if you unsure.

    If it is a plastic, or fiberglass tub, (newer) it could be more difficult. While the solvents above could possibly work depending on the material, they could potentially damage the finish. If you know you have plastic, or fiberglass, or are unsure, use a mechanics hand cleaner like D&L. Use one that does not have any pumice or abrasives, put on a layer and wait a few minutes, & rub. It will soften the paint and you will be able to remove it all, without any damage, it will take just longer, reapply until you have removed it all. This will work even if the tub is painted, because the hand cleaner will remove the spray paint, long before the professional finish.
