KREUL textile marker sets, Medium or Opaque

Draw a name, leaves or a graphic pattern on a bag or other suitable textile. These KREUL sets contain water-based fabric markers. You receive the selected set of four or five pens; fabric and other materials are needed separately. Choose by fabric colour first, then by palette and line width.

Choose a set for your fabric

• Medium, 5 pens: yellow, red, blue, green and black, with a 2–4 mm fibre tip. For light cotton, batiste, linen or blended fabrics containing no more than 20% synthetic fibres.
• Opaque, 5 pens: white, yellow, red, blue and green, with a 2–4 mm round Medium tip. For light and dark cotton, batiste, linen, silk or blended fabrics containing no more than 20% synthetic fibres.
• Opaque Black & White, 4 pens: black and white, each supplied as one 2–4 mm Medium and one 1–2 mm Fine pen. Four separate pens for the same fabrics as the opaque colour set, useful for combining lines and smaller details.

Prepare and draw

Prewash the fabric without softener to remove finishes. Let it dry and place baking paper between fabric layers. Try the colour and line width on a scrap of the same fabric first. Medium is ready to use: no shaking or pumping. Before each use, shake opaque pens vigorously for 1–2 minutes with the cap closed. Then gently press the nib on paper several times until ink becomes visible.

Fix and wash

Medium: air-dry for at least 3 days. For quicker wash resistance, dry for 6 hours, cover with baking paper and iron for 5 minutes on the cotton setting, or heat in an oven for 8 minutes at 150 °C. Then wash inside out at up to 60 °C. Both opaque sets: dry for 6 hours, then fix using the same iron or oven method; wash inside out on a delicate cycle at up to 40 °C. Only use fixing and washing methods that the fabric’s care label allows. Air-drying alone does not replace heat-fixing for the opaque pens.
