this is why when i spilled blue and pink paint on the linoleum in my room..... i now have a blue and pink floor. its fine. ive even convinced myself i like it.
Some pigments are more likely to stain things with reds being the worst, and some blues nearly as bad. Not always able to wash that away even if you get to it early.
Same process if it is latex/acrylic/water-soluble. Mop it up with a paint brush then come back with water, soap-and water, a hose with a good jet stream, and maybe a stiff bristle brush. Get it while it is fresh and after the bulk is off, what remains is easily broken down by an application of water and some form of scrubbing.
I would think letting it dry on concrete is far worse because it's much more pourous than a flat steel surface. This method she corrects with just makes sense.
@@calstatelaalproductions2358if it's the same process, then why did you clean up paint on one of the easiest possible surfaces instead of showing that?
I recoded the footage about cleaning pain spills three years ago, but thought it was a perfect response to the original stitched video of someone trying to leave it over night to dry and peel up then later adding a coagulant. Scraping up with the coagulant was way more work than mopping up with a brush and then cleaning/scrubbing afterward.
Back when I was a kid, we had pink carpet in our bathroom and my mom was painting the walls purple. She accidentally knocked the paint bucket over and decided to just rub it all over the carpet. It was pretty 😂
Top tip, of you spill a quantity of paint: use a dustpan (clean if you spilt on a clean surface and want to try and save the paint), scoop the paint onto the dustpan with either a paint brush or a window squeegee.
I think in the original video she might have a reason for not breaking out the hose. I wouldn’t use a hose until after I’d picked up the bulk of the paint and disposed of it first. Especially outdoors near landscaping where I don’t want that paint to run off into the vegetation.
Idk if it works for paint cans but for acrylic paint if you let it harden, windex does a pretty okay job of loosening it up and slightly breaking it down apparently.
I DID THIS WITH A GALLON OF LANDRY SOAP LAST WEEK! 😂 I used a bench scraper from the kitchen and scraped it into a bucket. Was a pain in the butt, but I was able to save over $20 worth of gain! 😅
Oh my God one time I spilled almost an entire gallon of purple paint on cream carpeting my first instinct kicked in I grabbed a 5-gallon bucket of water dumped it on the paint immediately started rubbing it in grabbed at the Shop-Vac and started to suck and repeated that process about 10 times but you still can't tell I spilled paint there
I usually clean paint spills with the brush too. I had wet hands though so I usually wipe up with paper towel or wait for the layer to dry and peel it (plus when you peel it it sooo fun)
Cool what if it’s on something else like not solid like tile but like carpet in the living room? And you need to clean it up in a hurry… Asking for a friend 😊
Something fibrous and absorbent? Blot it up with rags and then rent a carpet steam cleaner and use within 24 hrs before it cures? When scene painting, I have had success at getting paint out of clothes if I soaked the area with detergent/stain remover, scrubbed with a toothbrush, and then did a heavy soil wash cycle. Need to get it into the wash ASAP, same day, the sooner the better. Needs the scrubbing and soaking first. If you get within the first 24 hours before the water-based paint has time to cure, this can work. Better to wear paint clothes, but sometimes you are wearing nicer clothes and won’t know until you get to work that you need to do some painting that day. You try to be careful but no matter how careful, some random drips and drabs almost always happen, often during tool cleanup.
The Masonite on the top of the work table was already due for replacement. On most of our scene shop surfaces we have a sacrificial top layer of 1/4” masonite so when it gets too chewed up or covered in paint, it’s easy and inexpensive to replace.
You’d have to hunt down the original poster of the stitched content to ask. You would want to pick up the bulk of the liquid first before hosing things down outside. That much paint wouldn’t be good to runoff into plants and vegetation nearby.
My son spilled latex paint all over our wood floor and I did basically this, but it was nearly impossible to get out of the cracks and seams. I got the bulk of it up but had to scrape it out of every seam and it started to dry before I could get about halfway. I was so, so angry because he'd been warned about carrying them carefully to avoid exactly what happened.
So many wood floor options these days have microbevels. I would be sad having to try to clean spilled paint out of those. If it were an older hardwood floor with cracks and checks and gaps, that would be even more painful.

Its the same with red and blue hair dye😂@@calstatelaalproductions2358
K, now do it on concrete/brick

Water.

Me, cleaning up paint: *paints the rest of the surface the same color* lmao
That’s one way to do it!
When it's outside just throw sand on it (a lot) and rub it in and leave it

Great suggestion! Even better!
I really feel that she couldve just turned on the hose and washed away the mess but hey... what do I know 😂

I just peel acrylic paint off 🤷♀️

Literally just busted out the pressure washer
Let it dry and peel it up. Easy peasy

You could also try a wet/dry vac to suck up most of the liquid content then do the carpet steamer process after.
For the end part… that person shoulda just painted the table at that point 🫤

If it’s outside why not just hose it down?

I am cleaning paint off the concrete floor in our garage. It is my hubby's fault!
Ouch!
Scrap it down to a thin layer. Let dry then use a putty knife to scrap up
A bench scraper would've worked so much better to scrape the paint up on tbe table

Elmers glue. Let it dry over the seam and peel it back
Accidents happen
Caitlin isthat u
💀
The hose
Also- kitty litter and denatured alcohol.
Cat litter?
Haha YEAH
Let see when its dry lol
Baby wipes lol
Everyone these days reaches for paper towels as a first go-to. Even for plain water spills.
@@calstatelaalproductions2358 convenience is the biggest toxin in our society right now. It gives way to laziness and entitlement
Hahahaha
Put gloves ;)
