Can I use this paint on shirts? If so, Can I wash it and the paint stays on?

i found the colors to be a little different when they dried. i used them mostly for mixed media painting on canvas. i DID do one t-shirt. and had to retouch it, after i washed it. after that, it was "just OK". be sure to put some cardboard protection under the layer of fabric you are painting. also, give plenty of drying time. if i had it to do over, i would make a small color sampler, by drawing a line from each color first, so that you can see what it will look like when it dries. rather than waste them, i still use them on occasion, but mostly i use another brand. and btw, i like martha stewart and regret giving such a negative answer. good luck.

No don't use it in your laundry soap. I've tried everything and oils make spots on your clothes and don't contribute to the smell that much. Message me back if you want more advice. I have been doing laundry soap for years and I have a great recipe.

It is cloth so I would think you can. If you think it is going to get dirty then if I were you I would go to somewhere like Wal-Mart and get a cheap can of scotch guard and spray the cloth on both sides. You would probably need 2 to 3 cans to do this, but scotch guard is cheap. And then for sure you could spot wash it. There is no where where you can take off the cloth and wash it in a machine. But if you do as I directed you definate could spot wash it. I personally have no need to have to wash mine so I don't know if you could spot wash the fabric as is, but I am guessing you could, but without scotch guarding it may keep a small stain.

I wouldn't use it on fabrics. Its paint for metal wood plastic. If used in Fabrics i think it would dissolve or fade after washing. But you can try it Good luck

Yes, I have applied it many times to shirts and even cotton tops and after washing it stays in place.

No. You do not steam this paint. Use it on a clean and dry fabric - not washed or dried with fabric softener - let dry for a few days and then launder as normal.

I would not put it in the wash. What you can do is dilute it with water and spray it on the shirts before ironing. That shirt will be so nice and crisp after you iron it. The shirts will look like you just go them out of the dry cleaners. Just do not put water in the iron, because that makes your iron rust quickly.

I am not sure of your question. The material is like any other. You can apply the material to shirt by sewing it or adhesive.

I actually used this foam for my God of War/Kratos costume. it is completely possible to paint this without melting it. just be sure to not only test your paint on a piece not included in your project (i.e. cut a small piece off of 1 sheet) to be sure your paint selection won't melt the foam and you might also want to sand down the surface so you don't see the foam particles through the paint. but in short, Yes it is very possible. another option if you want to use spraypaint, use the "model train" spray sealant first and paint over that.

The kids have also been using them as paint aprons while painting with liquid paints and the paint has not come through to their clothes. I have just done a test by squeezing a big blob of paint directly onto apron and a little did seep through. Although if I just brush lightly with brush or splash some from the brush it seems to hold it well.

I would have to say this paint could be used on clothing. While painting my daughters doll house I wore an old sweatshirt. Darn good thing I didn't care about the paint coming out! It' there to stay FOREVER!

When I used it, we made 7 shirts, but I made two of each design. I don't think they would have been reusable for us after that night of t-shirt making. So you can use it a few times, but I doubt more then 5-8. Unless you took extra care of it. After ours got all painted up, they didn't stick as well after awhile. It works great though (don't get me wrong), but I'm not sure it is realy meant for a long term use.

I've never used it on anything that large, but I would recommend following the label carefully as to ventilation. Probably best outdoors on a very calm day and let it dry outdoors. I haven't found any residual odor or stickiness. An even coat on an object that large might be a challange ... also, I have no experience with washability on cotton, that is, how long it will last.

Yes. You need to use 100% cotton or other natural fabric for best results. If you want to dye poly, it takes a special product for synthetics. If you dye with blends, the poly part will not dye. The cotton part will. It might be an interesting effect. Try a small piece and see what you get. Plus, things loose a lot of brightness as the colors set and dry. And you may lose more color when you first wash the garment. And that kit will not dye 15 shirts. More like 5.

Yes, with wicking shirts. I recently tried long pre-soak in vinegar followed by a different sports detergent. Have not tested results yet.

I've never tried it and I don't think I would. I think you would need so much in a washer so it's not diluted out that it wouldn't be worth while. Also it's an oil and likely would spot or stain clothing.
