Removing spray paint from saguaro cacti can be challenging. Gently hose down the painted areas, use a soft brush, and try isopropyl alcohol or mineral spirits. If difficulties persist, consult with a professional specializing in cacti care. Always test any cleaning solution in a small area first to avoid damage.
