How to Remove Paintball Paint From Siding

Most paintball paint is designed not to stain. It is water soluble and degrades quickly, making it easy to remove from house siding in general. If your house is tagged by a paintball gun, start with the mildest treatment possible. If the paint does prove stubborn, work up to harsher cleansers until you are able to remove it.
