Natural fabrics like cotton and linen may require a different type of paint than synthetic fabrics like polyester and nylon. Additionally, upholstery fabric may require a different type of paint than T-shirts or denim. In addition to considering the type of fabric, it’s important to consider the intended use of the painted fabric. Upholstery fabric, for example, may require a more durable paint than T-shirts or denim. Finally, consider the desired finish. When washing painted fabric, it is important to use a mild detergent that is gentle on fabric. Harsh detergents can damage the paint and cause it to peel or fade. Look for a detergent that is specifically designed for delicate fabrics. It is also important to avoid using too much detergent. Excessive detergent can leave residue on the fabric, which can cause the paint to peel or fade over time. Use only the recommended amount of detergent, and avoid using fabric softeners or bleach. Peeling and Fading Prevention Keep in mind that this is a textile medium only—you must mix it with acrylic fabric paint. The bottle contains the recommended ratio of paint to medium, and you may need multiple bottles of medium (and paint), depending on the size of the piece you’re painting.

Using Paint Brushes Start at the top and work your way down section by section to minimize the risk of smudging wet paint with your hand.
