Emulsion paint, also known as latex or acrylic paint, is a water-based, interior paint with acrylic polymers. It is used mainly on interior walls and ceilings. Removing this paint when it is still wet is very easy--just use soap and water. Removing it after it has dried is more difficult--but not impossible. Advertisement
Step 1
Prepare the area by placing a drop cloth on the floor. This job can get messy and products you'll be working with may damage a floor's finish. Put on safety goggles to protect your eyes, rubber gloves to protect your hands, and old clothes you don't care about. Open windows for ventilation. Step 2
Wet a paint brush in the paint-removing solution. Apply the product thickly, a section at a time.
