Can I use this paint on shoes?

How should I store the paint?

Can I paint over existing designs?

Does the paint crack after drying?
When applied correctly to flexible fabric and allowed to cure properly, Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paint is designed to remain flexible and resist cracking.
Troubleshooting
Paint is too thick or not flowing
Shake the bottle gently. Ensure the nozzle is not clogged; clear with a pin if necessary. If paint is old, it may have thickened and could be less usable.
Paint is bleeding or spreading excessively
Ensure the fabric is taut and not moving during application. Apply thinner layers of paint. Check if the fabric is too absorbent or has a loose weave.
Design is not dimensional
Apply a slightly thicker bead of paint. Ensure the paint is not being spread too thinly. Allow adequate drying time without disturbance.
Paint washes off after laundering
Ensure the paint was allowed to cure fully (24-72 hours) before washing. Pre-wash fabric to remove finishes. Ensure correct fabric compatibility and application technique.
