FAQs
How long does the paint take to dry?
Drying time varies based on thickness, but it's recommended to let it air dry for at least 72 hours before the final curing step.
Can I use this paint on non-fabric surfaces?
While primarily designed for fabric, it may adhere to some other porous craft surfaces. However, its washability and durability on non-fabric materials are not guaranteed.
Do I need to heat set the paint?
Yes, heat setting with an iron is recommended for maximum durability and washability. Allow it to air dry first for 72 hours, then iron on the reverse side.
Is this paint suitable for children's crafts?
Yes, the formula is nontoxic, and the easy-squeeze bottles make it user-friendly for children under adult supervision.
Can I layer the paint for a thicker effect?
Yes, you can layer the paint, but allow each layer to dry partially before adding the next to prevent smudging and ensure proper adhesion.
What is the shelf life of Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paint?
When stored properly in its original sealed bottle in a cool, dry place, the paint typically maintains its quality for 1-2 years.
Troubleshooting
Paint is too thick or stringy.
Shake the bottle gently. If the paint has been stored for a long time, try adding a tiny drop of water and mixing thoroughly, though this may slightly affect adhesion.
Design cracked or peeled after washing.
Ensure the paint was fully dry before washing and that the curing process (ironing) was completed correctly and for the recommended duration.
Paint bled or feathered on fabric.
Ensure the fabric was not too thin and that a consistent, even layer was applied. Avoid overworking the paint once applied.
Nozzle is clogged.
Gently clean the nozzle tip with a damp cloth or a pin after use. If clogged, carefully remove the tip and soak it in warm water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paint is ready to use straight from the bottle. Ensure the fabric you are applying it to is clean, dry, and free of any finishes or starches. Shake the bottle gently before use.
Compatibility: This paint is designed for use on most fabrics, including cotton, polyester blends, and denim. It adheres best to natural fibers. Test on an inconspicuous area of the fabric first if unsure.
Care: Allow painted fabric to air dry for at least 72 hours. For maximum permanence, after air drying, turn the fabric inside out and iron on a hot setting (without steam) for 3-5 minutes. Once cured, the fabric can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.
