I have yet to get paint out of any fabric, water based included 
You could put a piece of fabric over it and heat set with a hot iron.
I saw a show on The Quilt Show about a lady famous for her painted fabric, she uses the $2.00 craft paint watered down by half. I've got a few pieces in quilts and it has never faded.
