How To Remove Oil Based Paint on Sink Bowl
Have you ever washed your paint brushes out in your sink that had oil based paint on them and gotten the paint stuck on your sink bowls? If so, this amazing cleaning product is for you!
This post was originally shared on my Facebook page.
There’s been a lot of painting going on at my house lately – and I’m talking Oil Based paint!! Ugh that stuff is such a pain but it is sooo much more durable than latex. I am awful at cleaning my brushes, especially when it involves having to pull out the paint thinner. I tried to wash my brush in the sink and it was a huge mistake! The paint was everywhere and would not come off of my bathroom sink bowl. I tried paint thinner and it wouldn’t even budge!
So I busted out my most trusty cleaner, Shaklee Scour Off and sure enough it was gone just like that!! I absolutely love Scour Off! It has saved me time and time again!
