Decola textile liner 18 ml

One tube for lines and dots

Add raised lettering, dots and fine decorative borders to fabric with this water-based acrylic liner. You receive one 18 ml tube in the selected shade, not a fifteen-colour set. Choose from eleven ordinary colours or four metallic options: Bronze, Copper, Gold and Silver. Sky Blue and Blue are separate choices. Fabric and separate tools are not included.

Work directly from the nozzle

Prewash the fabric without softener and let it dry. For garments, put a protective layer between the fabric layers. Practise on a spare piece, then draw with a steady movement from the pointed nozzle. Adjust pressure on the tube to control line width. The liner can also be used alongside Decola fabric paints.

Decorative line or colour barrier?

On silk, this textile liner is intended for decorative detail. Its line does not independently keep different fluid colours apart and does not replace gutta or another suitable resist. Use an appropriate resist in silk painting when you need to limit colour spreading between areas. On cotton and linen, the liner can provide details or act as a standalone decoration.

Compare a monogram

As a suggested trial, draw the same small monogram twice on the intended fabric: once with a fine line and once with a broader line. Keep colour and size the same and record colour reference, fabric and pressure. Compare the dry lines. Fix and wash the sample according to the tube directions before choosing the finish for your project.

Drying, fixing and care

Allow the design to dry and fix it with an iron or hair dryer according to the tube instructions and the fabric’s heat tolerance. After the specified fixing, the decoration can be gently washed. Follow the textile care label and the liner’s care directions.
