lol - not after all that painting! ... don't forget to put some handcream on after, the mix will leave skin feeling extra dry. Good luck. Sylvx |

Hi Carol :):) If you have any nail varnish remover, that is an acetate that may remove it, again rinse well after using it. Colin :):) |

Any white spirit will do.... water won't shift it. If it's on skin you could try putting a squirt of washing up lliquid on your hands,, then rubbing them in salt. The mix usually gets the worst off skin.... Then rinse well obviously. Sylvxx |

apparently washing up liquid will get some of it off but not as good as turps. Hubby just said petrol will work as well but hes not sure thats a good idea unless you have a mower to get it out of |

I've run out of turps and as usual have got more paint on me than on the brush--is there any other way of shifting it? carol |
