Hey guys need some help… some poured paint all over this house… what’s the best way to remove
It depends on what kind of paint it is. Latex or oil.
I couldn’t tell you
I am pretty sure it’s just house paint…
Life is way to full of headaches to want to add any more. Walk away

It’s my wife’s realtor friend … so I want to try and remove it for her… also pay will be a insurance claim…
I’m sure you thought of this already but I’m hoping it didnt happen becuse the homeowner neglected to pay a contractor for work

Dude did some kid put paint in a super soaker. How do you spill paint so many times
So the owner of the house passed away ( husband) and the contractor said he never got paid but the wife shows her husband paid him… so guess what the contractor did…
Graffiti remover if it’s fresh. Do you have hot water.
On the glass that’s easily removed with a rounded glass scraper. Ask @Infinity or @steve or @jordie about that first though. Lol don’t want you to have to repair a scratch.
Scratch that. Lace up your shoes, run away, and yell HARD PASS back over your shoulder.

Id try a turbo on the brick and a razor on the glass
That’s 2 more reasons to walk away

You have several options outside of walking away…methylene chloride,turpentine and or mineral spirits if it is fresh apply with some good ole elbow grease and some sort of rag.
No hot water … try a test spot on it it came off but it’s not a easy job
The vandal, first at close proximity to the door, poured the paint against the glass. And then turned to his right, and swung the paint can up, and splashed some to his right. Then he turned to the left, and did the same thing… then as he left he splashed what was left on that far left spot there. Just my observation. Dont rip off contractors I guess.

You’ve been watching too much CSI…
Btw, is no one shocked at how low this contractor went? To vandalize a grieving widow’s home for non-payment?
I can understand how some might get vindictive and exact judgment on a deadbeat customer. But there are some lines you just don’t cross, no matter how much you think they deserve it 
I wouldn’t judge this lady on the fact that a lunatic contractor did this to her. Obviously keep both eyes open for any other warning signs, but I wouldn’t walk away just because she chose not to pay that psycho (who apparently was already paid??)
