What to Do If You Have Paint Spillage in Your Car

At Medusa Auto Detailing, we frequently handle minor paint smudges in boots, which can often be removed within an hour. However, larger spills can quickly spread, especially when wet paint transfers from the floor to car upholstery, leather seats, or interior plastic. Acting fast is key to preventing deeper stains and lasting damage.

Why Removing Paint from Car Interiors Is Challenging:

  • Wider Coverage: Once paint spreads beyond the boot, it becomes more difficult to clean. Car upholstery, carpets, and underlays can absorb paint deep into the fibres, while seams, stitching, and foam in leather seats may trap it even further. Removing paint from car interior plastic can also be tricky, as certain chemicals may cause discolouration or surface damage.

  • Time Sensitivity: Removing paint from car interiors before it dries is crucial. While you may attempt to clean it yourself, using the wrong products or techniques can make the situation worse. Our expert team has the specialist equipment and experience to remove paint safely without causing additional damage.

Considerations for Dried Paint Removal

Assessing Dryness

The first step is to check whether the paint has fully dried. While most paints set within hours, even spills that are a few days old can sometimes be softened using damp towels before removal.

Cleaning Methods

  • Water-Based Paints – Steam cleaning can help break down water-based paints, making removal easier.
  • Solvent-Based Paints – These require the right solvent, depending on both the type of paint and the material affected. We carefully test solvents, starting with the least aggressive options to ensure safe and effective removal.

Protecting the Spill

If you can’t get immediate professional help, covering the affected area with damp towels or cloths can slow the setting process. This can make it easier to remove paint from car upholstery or clean paint from car leather seats before it becomes fully embedded.

Special Attention to Carpets and Boot Areas

When paint seeps through carpets or underlays, removal becomes more complex. Certain fabrics can resist cleaning agents, making the process more challenging. Our team uses heated solvents and tailored techniques to break down the paint without compromising the material.
