Even the 'washable' ELC ones say that they may stain if you read the small print, so they may well have been as good as it gets.

Even water based paint stains - redimix is pretty bad. To get stains out you have to soak in cold water - soap helps but detergent does not.
Washing them so hot will have set your stain nicely - give up and chuck them.

water-based paints only mean that the paint will come out.

sadly, the colour does not!!!

this I know with my sons school t-shirts.........several had to be thrown last school year, and when I complained, the teacher told me about the colour issue.

it stains.

sorry..

I had that at a M&T group. DD was painting and got it on her t-shirt and then the silly woman decides to tell us the paint is acrilic paint!
