Default removing paintball stains from wood siding?

So anyway, are common paintballs water-based, or oil-based? Still only
about
15 degrees out there, so I don't really wanna drag the hose out today.
Should I spray the spots down with 409 or something, until the weather
breaks? Any helpful hints from anyone who has BTDT would be greatly
appreciated.


Wait until the weather warms and it should wash off fairly easy. I had some
on my car a few weeks ago. Wood may not be as easy, depending on what
sealer or finish you have.


I don't have experience with paintball paint stains, but in general I
wouldn't let anything sit on the siding for too long. The sun has a
tendency to bake things on. I'd break out a bucket of hot water and a
scrub brush on a broom handle and have at it.
