DecoArt - Fabric Medium

Fabric Medium

Turn acrylics into washable fabric paint that won't crack or fade

1 ratio to transform standard acrylic paint into fabric paint that survives the washing machine. DecoArt Fabric Medium modifies paint chemistry to penetrate textile fibers rather than sitting on the surface, creating a flexible bond that moves with fabric without cracking or peeling. The formula maintains full color intensity while enabling proper adhesion across cotton, denim, and polyester blends, no color dilution, no compromised coverage.

Heat-set painted textiles with an iron to lock in permanence. The medium prevents common fabric paint failures: no flaking after repeated washing, no color bleeding across design boundaries, no fading through laundry cycles. This matters for wearable art and home decor textiles that face actual use rather than purely decorative display. Paint custom t-shirts, embellish denim jackets, create patterned throw pillows, or add designs to canvas tote bags with confidence the work will endure. Non-toxic formula works safely for clothing projects that contact skin directly.
