DS's high chair is a happy snack thingy, DD and I were using it to paint our Easter cards this morning (she's sat in it to minimize paint splattage lol! ) and the stupid MISTER MAKER paint has dyed the bloody tray pink!!
DH will be a bit narked - doesn't feel boys should wear pink, oops! Any advice on how to get the sodding paint off extremely gratefully received!!

Try cif with bleach in it, leave it on stain for a bit. But red based stuff is always really hard to get out.

Oops!! Reckon I should ring Mister Maker??

what is mister maker? do you know what sort of paint it is?

Mister Maker is on CBeebies, it's an arty crafty show and they were his endorsed paints. It was poster paint.

I find purple paint does this to our kitchen table and wooden high chair, but it fades after a few weeks of sunlight/ordinary wipeovers. After you've cleaned it, try to put it in front of a window for the sunbleaching effect. In the meantime, you could try telling DH to get a grip re boys and pink.
