Remove Spray Paint from Leather
Spray painting your kitchen chairs in your leather pants didn't seem like such a bad idea at the time. Well, no matter how you got that spray paint on your favorite leather, it's time to remove it. Here are some methods you can try to remove spray paint from leather. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Figure out whether your leather is finished or unfinished. Finished leather has a plastic coat over it and will resist water. Unfinished leather is soft and absorbs water. You can put one drop of water on your leather to figure out if it is finished or unfinished.
2. Try using dish detergent and warm water, if your leather is finished and has a thick heavy plastic coat. Dampen a wash rag in the water. Apply gentle pressure as you try to remove the stain.
3. Apply hair spray to a cotton ball. (Again, only try this if your leather is finished.) Gently rub the cotton ball with hairspray over the stain until it is gone.
4. Get some nail polish remover and apply it to a cotton ball or cotton swab. Gently rub the cotton soaked in nail polish remover on the spray paint splatter. The nail polish remover should get rid of the spray paint stain. This method works best for finished leather.
