Printing & Surfaces
What type of printing can I use the paint for?
Fabric printing/painting, screen printing, stencil work, lino, block & stamps. The paint is a light pigment based paint made from a selectasine binder which makes this multi functional for any textile project. The paints can also be watered down for fibre & water colour effects.
What surfaces can I print?
The paints are mainly used for fabric but we have also found that they can be applied to many matt surfaces too. From paper, fabric, cork, rope & even ply wood.
Fixing The Paint
To permanently fix the paint when dry you can use a number of different finishes. For fabric, steaming the area will fix the paint making it then machein washable. A domestic Iron can be used to apply heat and preasure. For other surfaces varnish or spray fixers can be applied on top of the paint when dry.
