So I put in some black/colored clothes in the wash and a jacket of mine had some paper towel in it. Now all my black/colored clothes have tons of lint/paper towel in them. How do I remove it?

LMAO. Sorry. I tend to leave gum in my pockets.

That's what I was thinking, but I tried one before and it didn't pick up shit.

This was when I was on duty and I was sorting the damaged products for the day and placing them into the recall bin. I came across this lint picker upper and since it was already opened I just tested on my slacks and it didn't pick up shit.

Well then go buy some Duct tape. That will pull it right off!

Couple of spins in the dryer with a dryer sheet should work for most of it.

SFIE frequently leaves things in his pocket, so this had happened to us. A couple of runs in the dryer and a lint roller (not from the damaged bin) or tape will take up the lint. My experience has been that it will come off easier if there is something damp in the dryer (not the clothes themselves, but something like a damp towel or two to help the lint clump).

Your problem isn't actually lint, it's static holding the lint on your clothes. Re-run your full rinse cycle and add some Downy or other liquid fabric softener this time, then re-dry. The lint should wind up where it belongs: in your lint trap.

From experience, I can vouch for the rewash and fabric softener in the dryer.
