text: That depends, is it oil based or latex? Latex will rinse out at first, but if it is dry, you wanna get real hot water and soak it till the paint starts to come off, then launder, but don't dry in dryer til you are sure spot is out. Dryer will set the stain. If it is oil based paint, some thinner will get it out, but make sure as soon as you get the paint out, you wash out the thinner too. Either way, if you have already dryed it in dryer, you better fall in love with that stain, cause it's there to stay.
