@lowellsaur You can thin the paint a small percentage with water, however if it too much water is added you loose the color intensity as well as the integrity of the paint film. Heat setting this paint once dry is recommended. This can be done in a clothes dryer or ironing the fabric on the opposite side that it is painted.
Hi I loved the video, Can you tell how to paint on a dark surface which stays soft and doesn't give off a very opaque hard look? Will be really glad if you'll reply.
does this dry hard or soft on fabrics? I noticed the wearables pictured are all hard fabric items, so it's not really an issue but on say a tee shirt, how hard?
2 questions. does one want to dilute the paint with water before applying it to the shirt? i ask because the paint is somewhat expensive. secondly does one have to iron the fabric after painting or could one simply let the paint dry?
@kaloykoynol Fabric paint and fabric dye are very different products. A dark fabric cannot be dyed to a lighter color. It is best to contact our Product Information team so they can provide you with detailed information for your project.

What I would like to know, is if you should soak your fabric in soda solution beforehand.
can you use leather

lowellsaur RIP @lowellsaur his answer was never seen to
If you dilute the paint the color is going to be very light and if you don t iron it the paint is probably going to come of during the washing

Pebeo says on their website that you shouldn't dry clean items painted with their paints FYI
