Anybody know what will get paint out of shirt.?
My son has ruined two of his school shirts now with paint that they use in art and I can't get it out with normal washing even on 60 degrees using Surf so has anybody any ideas what might remove it because it looks a right mess and is all down the front of his shirt
So if anybody can recommend anything I can buy to get the paint out I would very much appreciate it - its a pale blue shirt by the way.

Looks like he will just have to have a nice spotted blue shirt

I think this is what he has tried to do by the look of it - all red splodges all over the front He's 15 1/2 and still as messy as when he was 4 I was going to get him a couple of new shirts from M & S today but they haven't got any blue ones left - only white 
He can wear the spotted one though when he does art on Wednesdays

Don't know if this will actually work but, i work for a clothing company and we have a lady that comes in to do just that, remove stains and stuff she uses milk, yes i said milk!!! if it's off milk it works better (supposedly) soak the stain in milk for a few hours then put it in wash.
Have never tried it myself but she swears by it for any stain!!!
