        Ahem...., sorry.

        Looking pretty bloody awesome @RoxRocks86  Both the gear and the mud. The head’s not bad either.

                            I assume what you're after is how do you get them off without losing a patch of indigo? With some difficulty. Certainly don't scrub with water and a cloth as that will strip the indigo. I got wood glue on a pair once, let it harden then picked it out with the tip of a knife. Worked well. These days, anything like that happens I say fekk it and leave it be.

                              Ideally would have loved coming up with a MacGyver-esque indigo-preserving magic-solution but now I said

                              fekk it

                              and tossed the offending pair into the machine. Just a bit worried the wash won’t get rid off the stains as they got good and dry in the meantime. 😞

                              Thanks for the moral support!

                                Washing machine may work. If you’re still not happy then it should loosen the paint enough that the knife tip would work. But again I’d not worry about it and just wear them. Wabi-sabi and all that.

                                  How much specs of paint @Crit_Obs ? Not one big dunk into a bucket? If the paint wasn’t rubbed into the denim, like neph said, should be able to peel them off. Worse case scenario just designate the pair to paint days.

                                    On a scale from ”lol look at the doofus with dirty pants” to ”that’s like, avantgarde, man”, they score a solid ”slightly awkward law student in altogether too expensive clothes, that he uses also when he really shouldn’t”… which isn’t too far off the mark. 😎

                                    The wash didn’t do them much good and there’s no ”layer” that I could try and pry off. 😞 I guess that means I’m a pair of presentable jeans short at the moment... And the 888-OD just released... Hmm...

                                          That made me laugh.

                                          Think of it this way, you have the perfect excuse for new jeans, AND, you’ve gained the greatest pair of beaters ever. It’s win-win.

                                            Make that pic b&w or sepia and it could go in a museum (I mean that in the nicest possible way). Great stuff.
