The components of oil-based paints (the carriers and pigments) are not soluble in water due to their molecular structure. But they are soluble in certain hydrocarbons, such as naphtha, turpentine, or kerosene. When you use oil-dissolved paints, the pigment stays behind when the aromatic hydrocarbons evaporate. This paint is not subject to being easily washed away.

However, rain can physically remove paint particles, and the pigments can oxidize and fragment, a process called weathering.

Why cant water get grease out but soap can?

The molecules of a soap can surround oil molecules and bind to them, releasing their hold on materials and surfaces. The slippery soap does not attach to other molecules, and can be washed away.Grease itself is oil bound to a complex soap, that does not let it easily flow away from the lubricated surface.
