FAQs
How long does it take for the paint to dry?
Drying time varies depending on the thickness of the application and environmental conditions. It is best to allow at least 24 hours for complete drying before washing.
Can I use this paint on dark fabrics?
Yes, but the iridescent effect will be more subtle. Lighter colored fabrics will showcase the iridescent finish more effectively.
Is the paint safe for children?
Yes, the paint is nontoxic and safe for use by children and adults.
How do I store the paint?
Store the paint in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Can I iron over the painted design?
It is not recommended to iron directly over the painted design. If ironing is necessary, turn the garment inside out and iron on a low setting.
What happens if I make a mistake?
If the paint is still wet, you can try to blot it with a clean cloth. Once the paint has dried, it is permanent. Consider layering another color over the mistake to create a new design element.
How do I clean the applicator tip?
Wipe the applicator tip with a damp cloth after each use to prevent clogging.
Troubleshooting
Paint is cracking or peeling after washing.
Ensure the paint has dried completely (at least 24 hours) before washing. Wash inside out in cold water and avoid harsh detergents. Use a low setting on your dryer or air dry.
Iridescent effect is not as visible as expected.
Apply the paint on lighter-colored fabrics to enhance the iridescent effect. You may need to apply multiple coats and allow each coat to dry before adding the next.
Paint is too thick and difficult to apply.
Make sure you shake the bottle well before use. If the paint is still too thick, try applying it in a thin layer.
