How to Remove Paint Ball Stains From Plastic

According to PaintballX3, the first paintball game was played in 1981. From 1981 to present, paintball has exploded into a popular extreme sport. However fun and exciting the game is, it can be quite messy. The original paint used in paint balls was oil based. This made cleanup difficult. However, the new paint balls are water soluble, which means that removing them from items such as fabric or plastic is quite easy.
