Decola Textile is water-based acrylic paint for decorating cotton, silk and suitable synthetic fabrics. Apply it with a brush, through a stencil or with a stamp. Its thicker consistency helps keep colour where you place it. For freely spreading batik on fine silk, choose a dedicated silk paint; this textile paint is intended for painted shapes and patterns.
You receive one selected set in a cardboard box. The basic set has 6 jars of 20 ml: white, medium yellow, red, medium green, deep blue and black. The 9 × 20 ml set adds turquoise, silver and gold; 12 × 20 ml offers a wider palette including silver and gold. Trendy Shades contains 6 different shades of 20 ml. The mixed set contains 5 paint jars of 20 ml, silver and gold liners in 2 tubes of 18 ml, plus 50 ml textile diluent. These are different kinds of contents, not seven identical paint jars.
Wash fabric without softener, dry it and iron it flat before painting. Insert cardboard or film between garment layers to prevent colour passing through. Stir the paint thoroughly. Test painting, fixing and washing on a sample of the same fabric first, particularly with synthetic or heat-sensitive materials. Use only fabric that tolerates the required fixing heat.
Apply a thin, even coat with a brush, sponge or roller. Secure a stencil firmly and use little paint to avoid seepage beneath its edges. Let one layer dry before stamping another over it. Use the liner tubes for lines and accents, allowing approximately 3 hours for these to dry. To reduce colour intensity and improve flow, use Decola diluent for textile acrylics. Rinse tools immediately with water and close the jars tightly.
Leave the painted work to dry for 24 hours. Then iron for 5 minutes at the cotton setting, without steam, with a cotton cloth between the iron and paint. The fabric must tolerate this heat; do not simply lower the setting without a confirmed method for that material. Wait at least 48 hours after ironing before gently hand washing at 30 to 40 °C with mild liquid detergent. Avoid vigorous rubbing.
