A method of detackifying oversprayed paints chosen from the group consisting of high solids enamels, clear coats, two-phase urethane paints, and water or solvent borne base coats which comprises the contact of said oversprayed paint with an oil-in-water emulsion having: (a) 1-50 weight percent of a hydrocarbon oily liquid having a boiling point of at least 150 DEG C.; (b) 0.1-25 weight percent, based on the oily liquid, of an oil-in-water emulsifier; (c) the remainder, water; which emulsion has a pH of from 7.5-12.0 and then detackifying through said contact within a paint spray booth to form a detackified oversprayed paint particulate and then, collecting and dispersing said detackified paint particulate within the oil-in-water emulsion, thereby forming a spent oil-in-water emulsion containing at least 5 parts of detackified paint particulate per 100 parts of hydrocarbon oily liquid contained in said spent oil-in-water emulsion.
