Getting rid of paint stains.

DD got a paint set and a new fleece from my SIL, she was so excited she painted straightaway, wearing the fleece (whilst I was in the shower).
I saw what she had done but didn't have time to do anything as we were going to church. When we got back I read that paint stains should be washed out straightaway as could leave stains if allowed to dry.
As the paint is now dry should I try something like white spirit to get it out?

try covering the stain in washing up liquid and soaking for a while in cold water before you wash it

Thanks, I'll give that a go.
