Can anyone help?
My DH has just got some gloss paint on his suit. Not a lot, but enough to notice. Does anyone know how to get it out.
TIA.

cut it off and sew a snazzy patch on it?

turps will remove it from some fabrics... Dab on an old towel and rub...

Well it worked on my Winter coat when I was a kid - saved me from a huge bollocking from my mother - she never worked out why I smelt so strange.

Thanks - turps has done the trick. Although a patch would have made him stand out from the crowd.

Ooh job interview ...... Ooh good luck to him. Tell him to keep away from anyone smoking on his travels there or he might combust.

ermmm, might not be a job interview - was just projecting my fantasy life!
