How do you get the smell of paint thinner out of clothes?
Son got oil paint on pants all over, so I cleaned it off with paint thinners.I've washed them alone twice and they still really smell.How do I get the smell out.
Well I didn't say I was drying it in the dryer.I said I wanted to know how to get the smell out by WASHING them.
The paint thinner is no longer a fire hazard now that the pants have been washed three times. They are hanging on the line right now dying and hopefully airing them out.Do you think painters throw their clothes away everytime they spill thinners on them?

I would honestly throw them away. Isn't that a fire hazard to dry paint thinner in the dryer?

a dry cleaner that uses perklone will be able to remove the smell.
