You could try some paint stripper or "Goof Off". Use a little bit directly on the paint, let it sit for a few minutes then brush it with a stiff nylon brush. You may have to repeat that part a couple times, then when it looks the way you want it, rinse it off. Make sure that you use rubber gloves and do it in a well ventillated area. If you get any of the paint stripper on you, rinse it off IMMEDIATELY! After you get the jeans looking the way you want them, rinse them well then run them through the washer a couple times to get any residual paint stripper off. It's nasty stuff that you don't want in contact with your skin, but it works well getting paint off.

Rubbing alcohol works wonders!

My daughter almost cried when she discovered paint on her denim skirt. We painted her room a few weeks ago so the stain was not recent. I read that alcohol works so I decided to try it. To my amazement it not only worked, but worked well! I poured the alcohol on the paint, then I scrubbed the area using a dish cloth. The paint immediately began loosening. I was able to remove almost all of it by hand, then I put the skirt in the washer to remove the rest of it. This works great!

Kids usually don't care if they have paint on jeans. Parents will want to get paint off of kids jeans.

What kind of paint? How long has it been there?

For latex paint that has dried, a little bit of denatured alcohol will usually get most of it out. Probably nothing will get all of it out. If it is oil based paint......buy new jeans.

One way to get paint out of jeans is to soak the jeans overnight. This will help loosen the paint. Then scrape the paint off the jeans.

Rub it with Goof Off to soften it, peel it if you can. if it mostly comes off then spray with Shout, leave 15 minutes then wash in warm water.

How do you get paint out of jeans?

Try a little paint stripper or "goof off" in an inconspicuous spot to see if it causes problems. If it seems to be ok, apply a little to the paint spot, let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes, then use a stiff brush to loosen the paint. Rinse out the jeans and run them through a wash using normal soap and with nothing else in the washer. Paint stripper won't work if the surface is wet, so if that didn't take out all of the paint you might need to go through the process again after you've dried the jeans. BTW, DO NOT wear the jeans if you have applied paint stripper and haven't washed them. Paint stripper, even WEAK paint stripper can cause problems for you.
