Most paints are not soluble in alcohol, as they are typically formulated with water or oil-based solvents. However, some water-based paints can be thinned with alcohol to a certain extent, while oil-based paints generally require specific solvents like mineral spirits or turpentine. The effectiveness of alcohol as a solvent depends on the paint's composition, so it’s essential to check the paint type before attempting to dissolve it in alcohol.
