Key Features and Artistic Benefits
- Extensive Color Spectrum: Available in 40 vibrant shades, ranging from soft pastels to high-impact neons and shimmering pearlescent tones, ensuring a finish for every stylistic requirement.
- Specialty Effect Variants: The range includes Reflex, a high-visibility reflective paint compatible with both light and dark fabrics, and Nightlight, engineered for striking glow-in-the-dark effects.
- Soft-Hand Finish: Formulated to maintain the natural feel of the textile, ensuring that the painted areas remain flexible and integrated with the fabric fibers.
- Intermixable and Layerable: Colors can be easily blended to create custom gradients or layered for more complex, multi-dimensional designs.
Application and Technical Guidelines
- Surface Preparation: For optimal pigment adhesion, pre-wash the fabric without fabric softener to remove sizing and industrial finishes. Ensure the material is completely dry before application.
- Application Techniques: Apply the paint using a soft brush for precision detail or a sponge for broader coverage and stenciling. The paint features a 30-minute touch-dry window, allowing for efficient workflow transitions.
- Thermal Fixation: Once dry, the design must be heat-set using an iron on the cotton setting. Always place protective parchment paper between the iron and the fabric to preserve the paint’s integrity and prevent transfer.
- Laundering and Durability: After proper heat setting, the customized item is permanently fixed and washable at temperatures up to 40°C (104°F). The finished textile is also suitable for tumble drying.
