Removing Freshly Spilled Acrylic Paint

• 1). Wipe up the fresh paint as quickly as possible using paper towels or disposable cloths.
  
  
• 2). Scrub the deck using the soap, water and sponges, cleaning off as much of the paint as possible. Acrylic paint is water-based and will clean up using cloths and water.
  
  
• 3). If the paint is old and dried, remove as much paint as possible with the paint scraper.
  
  
• 4). Sand and remaining paint down as smooth as possible.
  
  
• 5). Pour acetone or paint remover on the area and allow it to set before wiping it off if the paint is still not coming off.
  
  
• 6). Scrape the area once more to remove any remaining paint.
