Best Answer

Sometimes, depending upon the fabric, how long the paint has been there and what kind of oil-based paint you were working with.

You may be able to use a lipid solvent, such as nail polish remover, rubbing alcohol or even paint thinner, if the paint is still wet. Please be aware that any of these materials may permanently stain, discolor or damage your clothing.

For paint that has dried, I think you are pretty much out of luck.

I don't see why not, many Fabric Paints are Acrylic, which means the're water based, I think there is an oil based Fabric Paint, which ever you deside to use, when and/or if you deside to put a finish coat on your project, make sure you use a water based finish with a water based fabric paint and an oil based finish with a oil based fabric paint.

What is the difference between wood paint and alkyd paint?

Alkyd paint has a resin in it to help the oil in the paint dry faster, oil based paint in my opinion has a more vibrant colors, both in depth an brightness, waterbased seems to be toned down some-what. Wood paint can be either water based or oil based and even water soluble oil based. Oil based alkyd paint lately are used for things or areas that might receive abuse, and because of the slower drying time the oil based alkyd paint will show less brush marks then water based paint.
