How to Clean Oil‐Based Paint
To clean oil-based paint off of your skin, rub an oil like coconut, canola, or olive oil all over the painted area. If you like, you can add lemon essential oil to help the paint come off more easily. Massage the oil into your skin until the paint breaks down and comes off. Wash away the oil with soap and water, then pat your skin dry and apply a moisturizer so your skin doesn't dry out.
Add mineral spirits to a small non-plastic bowl. To help thin the oil paint on your brushes, you'll need a paint solvent. Odorless mineral spirits work well, so fill a small glass or ceramic bowl with a small amount of the liquid and place it in the sink where you plan to clean the brushes. You can also use turpentine to remove oil-based paint from brushes. However, it has an extremely strong odor so it's important to ensure that you're working in a well-ventilated area. Dip the brush in the mineral spirits and run back forth on your hand. When you're ready to clean the brush, submerge it in the bowl of mineral spirits to ensure that all of the dirty bristles are coated. Next, rub the brush back and forth against your hand to work the mineral spirits into the bristles. Make sure that you rub both sides of the brush over your hand to ensure that you work the minerals spirits into all of the oil-based paint stains. Pour some dishwashing soap on the brush and rub it in. After you've worked the minerals spirits into the brush, squeeze a small amount of dishwashing liquid soap onto the bristles. Use your fingers to vigorously rub it into the brush. Any dishwashing liquid soap that is marketed as being able to cut through grease will work for cleaning your brushes. The precise amount of dishwashing soap that you'll need will depend on how large the brush is and how dirty they are. Aim for a 1- to 2-inch (25- to 50-mm) dollop of the liquid. Squeeze out the liquid from the brush. Once you've worked the dishwashing liquid into the brush, use your fingers to carefully squeeze all of the excess liquid from the bristles. Try to remove as much of the paint, mineral spirits, and dishwashing soap residue from the brush as possible as you wring it out. Rinse the brush under hot water. After you've removed as much of the liquid from the brush as you can, turn the water on in the sink and let it run for 30 seconds or so until it's hot. Run the brush under the water to rinse it clean, and squeeze it again to ensure that you remove all of the lingering residue. If the brush is extremely dirty or the paint stains are old, you may need to repeat all of these steps two or more times to remove all of the paint. Dip the brush into the mineral spirits and add dishwashing soap again. When you've removed all of the paint that you can from the brush, submerge it in the mineral spirits again. Next, squirt a pea-size amount of dishwashing liquid on it and work both into the spirits and soap into the bristles with your fingers. After you've worked the cleansers into the brush this time, do not rinse them out. Place the brush on folded paper towel and squeeze out the excess liquid. With the minerals spirits and dishwashing liquid still on the brush, set it down on a folded piece of paper towel. Squeeze the paper towel around the bristles to remove the any remaining liquid. Leave the brush out to air dry completely. Leaving the film of minerals spirits and dishwashing liquid on the brush to dry will help keep the bristles soft so it's like new when you use it the next time. Combine lemon essential oil and coconut oil. To create a cleanser to remove the paint from your skin, add a small scoop of coconut oil and 2 to 3 drops of lemon essential oil to a bowl. Mix the ingredients well to ensure that they're thoroughly combined. You can use any type of oil, such as olive oil, jojoba oil, or canola oil, to help break down the oil-based paint. Coconut oil usually work best because it is solid at room temperature so it won't make as big a mess as you rub it into your skin. The amount of coconut oil that you'll need depends on how much paint is on your skin. Start with a small amount and add more if the paint isn't coming off. Adding the lemon essential oil is optional. However, it is believed to be an extremely effective cleanser so it may help the paint come off more easily. Rub the mixture all over the affected skin. After you've mixed the coconut oil and lemon essential oil, use your fingers to apply the mixture to the areas where the paint has stained your skin. Massage the coconut oil into your skin until the paint breaks down and comes off. If all of the paint isn't coming off, add a little more coconut oil to your skin to help break down the remaining paint. Wash your skin with soap and water. After you've removed the paint with the coconut oil, use your usual hand or body soap and water to clean the residue from your skin. Pat your skin dry, and follow up with a moisturizing lotion to keep your skin from drying out. If you have a lot of paint on your skin, you may need to repeat the cleaning process two or more times to remove all of it. Scrape off the paint and blot the fabric. As soon as you notice that you've gotten oil-based paint on fabric, use a utility knife, plastic knife, or even a piece of sturdy cardboard to scrape it off. Next, blot the paint stain with a clean white cloth or rag to absorb any excess moisture from the paint stain. It's important to use a white cloth to blot the paint stain to ensure that no dye transfer from the cloth to the fabric that you're cleaning. Rinse the stain with water. After you've scraped off and blotted the paint from the fabric, use warm or hot water to rinse the area.

You may need to blot the stain with turpentine several times to remove all of the paint. Apply dishwashing liquid to the stain and allow it to sit overnight. After you've blotted the stain with the turpentine, rub a small amount of dishwashing liquid over the remaining stain. Next, place the fabric is a tub or bucket filled with warm water and allow it to soak overnight. Use a dishwashing liquid that's designed to cut grease. You can soak the fabric in a sink if you prefer. Rinse the fabric. When you're finished soaking the fabric overnight, remove it from the tub or bucket. Use warm water to rinse the dishwashing liquid from the stain in the sink. Launder the item as usual. After you've rinsed the fabric, wash it your washing machine.
