Oil-based paints are used in many crafts and are also used in remodeling. These types of paints are sometimes labeled as permanent paints, but this is not necessarily true. When this paint is used around tile and the paint spills, it needs to be removed from the tile as soon as the spill occurs. Fortunately, most of the tiles on the market have a glaze that makes the tiles pretty stain resistant. When the oil paint is allowed to dry, it is a bit more difficult to remove, but it can still be done.
Things You'll Need
Heavy-duty detergent
Cloth
Warm water
Instructions
- Mix 1 part heavy-duty detergent per 3 parts of warm water to make a cleaning solution.
- Dip the cloth into the cleaning solution and wring out some of the liquid.
- Place the cloth over the oil-based paint stain and let it sit until the cloth is cool to the touch.
- Re-wet the cloth and wring out as much liquid as possible.
- Scrub the oil paint with the wet cloth until it is removed from the tile.
