How to get dried paint off of raw denim and clothes?

[poormansclothes]

I just got back from my volunteer job where I just painted a room with my raw denim and some clothes. I have lots of paint splatter on the clothes. How would I get rid of it? I haven't washed either of them yet.

I'm getting the stains off of the clothes with rubbing alcohol, but I'm not sure if I want to risk doing the same to the denim.

Jeez, I'm just going to have to scrape it off with alcohol. Can I dip it in cold water afterwards instead of washing it to get rid of the alcohol?

You could carefully use a razor blade.

I tried using a butter knife to scrape it off, but it's in there pretty good. I haven't washed them yet just in case anyone has any ideas, and I think that if I wash them, they will set in.
