Liquitex Professional Effects Medium, 118ml (4-oz), Fabric Medium

The short answer? It's been a hot minute since I've last used proper fabric paint, but I feel like this medium works about as well as fabric paint. Long review: I saw a comment on someone's YouTube video that mentioned that this product exists and tends to be cheaper to use than getting fabric paint. I wanted another way to use my acrylic paint, so I grabbed a bottle. I liked how no heat setting was required, so I went to work. In hindsight, I should've used an old egg carton to mix the paint as opposed to the old cheese plate since the medium is very runny. That made it harder to gauge how much medium I needed. Still, I was impressed that the paint's color was never compromised even when I thought I added way too much medium. I was afraid of cracking, so I only did one coat on the bag with stripes. The other two items were just me offloading paint, but it did give me a chance to see if even light amounts of paint would survive the wash. The striped bag does look a bit faded (but that's a happy accident; I love it), so I might experiment with two coats of paint on another project. I like how the shirt and smaller tote bag came out, too. One thing I will say is this product may be too expensive if you plan on painting quite a bit. These three pieces used around two thirds of the bottle. I won't know if the price if worth it until I try another brand. I'll update this review when I do. Still, I'm happy I could use the colors I want.

Pretty straight forward to use. Pour equal parts acrylic paint and this project and it makes it pretty easy to paint on fabric. It also requires no heat setting. For drying, I just let it sit over night, undisturbed.

Great !! Easy to use made the paint adhere to my denim and paint flow nicely Iam customizing a pair of Jeans I have. so Iam designing distressed patch’s works great!

It works amazing! When mixed with acrylic paint it created the best fabric paint, very satisfied with the result.

Hey guys, I used this product to turn my acrylic paint into "fabric paint". I mixed equal parts of this product + acrylic paint and started painting my super dirty Ugg boots (what can I say, I'm not buying another pair of Uggs for $200+ when I can spend $15 in supplies to make them look new again!). I will post photos of the results (understand, I wasn't super careful on the paint job... but they still look good, I think). A few notes incase you decide to attempt this yourself. 1) if you skip the liquitex and just use your acrylic paint, your Uggs with feel like cardboard. Don't do it. 2) Stuff socks in your Uggs before you start so they keep their shape. 3) It's ok to use a higher ratio of liquitex to paint (more liquitex, less paint), the consistency of the paint will be thinner, but the result will be a softer finish when they dry 4) Let it dry a full 24 hours and then use your hair dryer to heat it up and lock in the paint. After all this, I plan on spraying them with a waterproofer (I ordered one here, called Kiwi Camp Dry. It arrives tomorrow, so we'll see if it works!). Oh yeah, I also ordered new Ugg insoles on Amazon for around $15, so the insides would feel brand new). Hope this helps someone!! BTW, you can use any paint color you want. I used Martha Stewart Satin Sycamore Bark.

Used this to make cheap paint for fabric. Works well.

I didn’t realize but to buy fabric paint it only comes in like 16 packs or 24 packs I couldn’t find anywhere where they just had a large individual container of white fabric paint. I contacted one of the high-end fabric paint and paint manufacturers, and they said, the only way you could get it again was to buy, the whole set or get this type of liquid medium. it was exactly what I needed. I already had acrylic white paint I just didn’t have acrylic white fabric paint so this mixture you basically just mix it up one in one mixture so the same amount of paint and this medium and it is now fabric paint I haven’t had any peeling, it was exactly like the fabric paint that I used that came in the 24 pack so if you find yourself in the same situation as me trying to find a larger amount of white paint because obviously you use more white and more black than you would most colors this is how you would do it and I would recommend getting this liquid tax

Bought this to harden pieces of needle felting. Works great. Does change the color a little so do a test! But I’ll admit I never thought of putting this on wool, a professional recommend to try it.
