Did your DW at least take a picture of you looking like Homer Simpson?
Sadly, my wife has long gotten over the fact that I do picture worthy, stupid stuff. This probably dates all the way back to when I got a massive glob of Clear PVC cement in my hair, and had to shave my head. I was doing electrical conduit work and had to bash a large pipe joint together, very fast and violently, before the glue set. The whole maneuver was about as graceful as an octopus trying to screw a set of bagpipes. Since it was a bit of a panic with dirt, curse words and a hammer flailing about, I failed to notice, until much later, that a significant blob of glue had smacked me in the side of my head, and dried. When I sat down at the hair cutting place, later that day, the girl who was tasked with cutting this mass of my head recoiled in horror, and said, " Ew, I'm not touching that!". Can't say I blame her, as it looked remarkably like I had acquired a sperm sample from a horse, or something. Once I convinced her that it was dried plastic resin, she carefully cut under it, and left a large hole in the side of my hair. This limited my fashion options significantly, with a buzz cut being the only choice left.
Was it an oil-based paint? Or does that work for water-based paints too?
Yep, it was oil based, latex should come off a lot easier.
