Is there any way to remove latex paint from clothing?
There is this product, called Goop OFF. I am a 35 year professional Painter. This product was originally intended to remove latex paint from anything, including carpet. I ruined a favorite shirt , painting in it one day. Just for the hell of it, I decided to rub the Goof Off into all of the stains and wash it. What do you have to lose? It was ruined anyway. It worked. Warning! This stuff has a very strong chemical smell, so do a double rinse cycle when you wash it and hang it up to dry.

all the info i read on the net seems to be so harrowing when it comes to lead paint..almoist as if lead paint is the cause of most world problems…i know government agencies tend to overexagerate hazards, and i just want to know the real thing…any help?
When you have a small child with high lead levels and as they get older you will not only see the serious side affects of lead poisioning but only then can you answer your own question.I have 5 boys that was exposed to lead paint and dust.It causes behavior,eating,sleeping and learning problems.Only 2 of my kids was affected by these terrible side effects of lead poisoning.I know a child who had convulsions and was admited to the hospital with lead levels of 40 something and that child almost died several time during his 3 weeks hospital stay.Lead poisoning is a serious problem.Most people think you have to eat paint chips to get it.Yes you will get it from comtaminated paint chips but also you can get it from dust in your home that was on walls with lead paint,old bath tubs has lead based paint and alot of kids cant resist drinking a little bath water and they get lead.I found cups in my home 10 years ago that was made in china that had lead in them.Dirt contains lead and so does gas.I was asked by the doctor when my kids had it do we live close to a interstate.There is alot of ways kids get lead poisoning and some adults get it to.
Paint removal from antique trunk?
Old trunk with new paint job. How is best way to remove the paint and regain original finish?
Get a paint remover. Take the trunk to a well ventilated area, and follow the directions. You will more than likely need some fine grade steel wool. If you want to stain it, buy some stain. If not get a sealer to help prevent stains. To be honest, I would wait til it got warmer. Paints and stains don’t set well in cool temperatures.

Does anyone know of a non toxic, easy to use, paint removal proceedure that will take off about 6 layers?
The window is stained glass about 6ft high and 3ft wide. The window is old so I want to avoid sanding or any harsh chemicals. The weighted chain is also painted and I want to remove that paint as well.
The more layers of paint the easier it is to get off I find. Using a hot air gun or blowlamp you can heat the surface and it will strip off using a sharp edge scraper. This should get the bulk off and you can then use a caustic paint stripper and wire wool to clean off the residue. A bit of care on the joint to the glass and protection for hands, eyes and breathing. A lot of older paint had lead in it so take care.
As for the chain I would strip it out and place it in in a bowl of paint stripper.
Hope this helps,

Steam Paint Removal
Excerpt from the Steam Paint Removal booklet:
http://www.historichomeworks.com/hhw/reports/reports.htm#Steam
John Leeke demonstrates using steam to remove heavy paint build up from wood surfaces in this five minute video. Steam paint removal softens the paint film so it can be more easily scraped away. It works well with the heavy paint buildup commonly found on the exterior of older buildings during house restoration and historic preservation projects.
Advantages:
This method has significant advantages over mechanical scraping and shaving, chemical stripping and the dry-heat of torch, hot-air gun and infra-red lamp methods:
- Significantly reduces the risk of starting a building fire.
- Helps control the lead-dust health risk issue because it is an inherently damp process and eliminates the lead-fume risk.
- No fumes from heat decomposition of binders in the old paint.
- Relatively low setup cost.
- Lower operating and supply costs than chemical paint removal.
- Lower residue disposal costs.
