How to get Paintball Stuff of Your gear

Post by blackout » Sun Apr 10, 2011 5:16 pm

Does anyone know of or have a quick solution for this? I have it all over my gear, especially my vest and dump pouch. I'm not sure how washing that stuff would go, but if there is another solution it would be greatly appreciated if you would reveal your secrets.

Take everything out of them and throw them in the washing machine: cold/cold, heavy soil settings, then dry it on low heat. That's what I do.

You should just be able to run water over it bc paint balls are soap based so they are easier to clean up.

"Should" being the key word in that sentence... I've got paint on some of my gear from Silverado City nearly 2 years ago that has withstood being washed, multiple rainstorms, and scrubbing by hand.

Paintballs are not hard to get off if you get them off soon (the day of) after they get ony our stuff. And I use separate gear for paintball... Just sayin.

I don't play paintball, I'm saying it rubbed off at Red Fox's Silverado City field (paintballers use it aswell).

OH believe me I know paintballers use it. It is my favorite place to play paintball. (and junkyard)
But fresh paint is the easiest to get off...
We should play a quick CQB shotties and pistols match at junkyard next time we go to red fox.
