I am soo annoyed, some little toerag has applied anti vandal paint to doorhandles at my childs school, which resulted in getting it all over new school uniform:eek: Has anyone any idea how to get it off, without damaging clothing, it couldn't be in a more noticeable place, slap bang in the middle of a light coloured school jumper.
Thanks in advaance!

Thanks, I know I feel like complaining tbh, but my DD is scared she will get hassle about it:rolleyes:
Well, I took the plunge, and put some turps on it and then boil washed it, I think its come out, its still wet at the moment, so can't tell properly, but now its all bobbly, so will have to buy a de-bobbler thing.grocery challenge Sept 2012 £21/£3990 -
Might be worth googling vandal paint and contacting a manufacturer for advice if it hasn't come out.
I managed to remove hammerite from oh's shirt with a spray stain remover called stainaway (I think - left can at his house!), available in supermarket and just sort of dissolves the paint, even better it smells of oranges rather than chemicals!GC Oct £387.69/£400, GC Nov £312.58/£400, GC Dec £111.87/£4000 -
If it was at the school, others must have the same problem. You should contact them to find out if they've found out who did it.0

I know, most were ok, only got it on hands, my DD then got her purse out her bag, (without noticing it on her hands) so purse got covered in it, she they held her purse close to her jumper and thats how it ended up on there.
The school do know about it as they had to give her stuff to get it off her hands, hopefully they will find who done it, but could have happened at night:rolleyes:grocery challenge Sept 2012 £21/£3990 -
