TULIP 20403 Soft Fabric Paint 4oz Matte Glacier White

This product worked great! I was a little torn with so many reviews saying it was glittery and grey. It was. BUT, the glitter and grey were gone after the second application. I am including 4 pics. The brownish grey is the color it started off as. The first application looked rough to be honest. The second application looked much better. In truth, I could have stopped after that application and been happy with the result. They were definitely black (though the lighting was bad for that pic and it kinda looks more like a charcoal). After the 3rd coat it was perfect. These boots are size 8 and go up to my knee. The one bottle of paint handled all 3 coats on both boots. If the picture looks a little textured it's because these are faux suede so sometimes they look that way depending on how the light hits them. I also painted the heel of my shoe and it worked there as well. Bonus: it's easy to wash off with soap and water from your body and it dries almost the instant you touch it which helps keep it from getting transferred everywhere. As someone who sews and modifies clothes often, this brand is now a staple in my kit. All in all, $6 is cheap to avoid buying new shoes.

The media could not be loaded. I used Tulip Soft gold glitter paint to change my holiday top from dull to special. It was a new top and I chose not to prewash as per the instructions. This product was easy to use and gave the garment an attractive glow. I actually enjoyed the painting process so much that I wanted to use the leftover paint in the bottle to put a soft golden glow on whatever else was lying around. There was plenty of paint in the bottle to actually do more projects. Another practical consideration is that even though I inadvertently got paint on my fingers, I did not end up with glitter in my eyes or any other unwanted areas. I wish I had something else to paint with this.🤩

It has been many years since I’ve used fabric paint. However, I had no issues using this one to make my daughter’s shirt for the 101st day of school. The matte black was solid and had no sparkles as others have mentioned. Perhaps that was a bad batch?

This was purchased for a cosplay I wore earlier this month and overall, I think it did a decent job at the task I had for it (which was painting on a black body suit to resemble a character's clothing) but there are a few complaints.So, what are the positives? It performs well as a fabric paint, I haven't noticed any of the paint washing off or fading or anything like that, and like the bottle states, it dries pretty soft and flexible! But, there are some things to keep in mind.First of all, this paint is able to dry softly because it's very runny and isn't the most opaque of paints. When using it, it's an absolute that there is a barrier behind the surface it's being put on because it can soak through fabric; I painted it onto a cotton/nylon bodysuit and it basically bled straight through to the other side. Also, if you want a truly opaque color payoff (as in a truly solid white shape with none of the fabric's color showing) with whatever you paint, you have to apply several layers of paint. I think this stuff works best if you want to be able to build up the coverage or use the fabric's color to create a certain effect with the paint.Also, this stuff says "matte" and compared to the "slick" version, this does qualify as matte in that it doesn't look wet/shiny in the light and tends to not lay upon the fabric as heavily or allow for it to be as dimensional, but the color glacier is not 100% matte either. It is full of tiny, tiny bits of glitter that kind of give the paint a shimmery effect in some cases (which is probably why it's called "glacier." It resembles the sparkle of snow). It's not super noticeable, but the glitter is there and can be seen in certain lighting, especially if you do lighter coats of paint (the more layers you apply, the less prominent the glitter is, but a light layer on dark fabric is noticeable).I think for most people's needs, this paint will do just fine. I personally did not find this particular type of paint to be the End All Be All for my project, since I had very large areas to cover with totally opaque shapes, but I suppose I should have realized that the "soft" version of the paint would be more runny and light in coverage in order to allow it to dry so soft. I don't fault the paint so much as I fault myself for expecting it to cover solid black fabric perfectly in one go, as if it were thick oil paint on a canvas, while still being super soft and flexible.The price is a little much, but unless you're covering a lot of area in a lot of layers, this bottle should last for several projects! There is a smell to the paint, as well, but it's not especially strong or unpleasant (just kind of smells like paint, you know?) and I wouldn't say it would warrant an open window or masks or anything.

This paint was a lifesaver! I bought a different brand of fabric paint to try, but it came assorted, but included the white I needed. Unfortunately, that one was so thick, I had to dilute it. The ratio was so off, that it looked too light on my lavender blue shirts, even with 2 coats. So I decided to get another brand and found that Tulip had good reviews despite it being cheap.Good news! It worked and it only took 1 coat without any diluting to finish. I was super excited. I painted on a stencil I created through Cricut. Unfortunately, bc I used the previous diluted paint, it bled the paint under the stencil. So after applying Tulip paint, it had a nice thick layer to make the design pop. Per directions, you must iron the back of the design (inside the shirt) bc it helps lock the paint onto the shirt. But I also use parchment on the top of the design to make sure the paint isn't rough. After cooling, the paint becomes flexible and smoother.Also, follow the directions before painting. You must wash and dry shirts (100% Cotton) before applying paint. It was my first time trying this paint out, but I'll definitely order it again bc of how easy it was to use. You don't need to dilute it. It's very opaque with smooth application with a flat brush. You also get a lot too. I barely used half a bottle for 20 shirts. Not bad.

best fabric paint

It works well but it’s not matte, it’s sparkly!

At first I thought the glitter was too sparse - and the paint itself has no color - it is more like white glue. However, I just wanted to jazz up a rather dull paisley sateen for a mask - and, as you can see from the photo - it worked. (Just ignore the cockroach in the Santa hat - I have way too much time on my hands.) This paint is a great fabric paint. It does not wash off after drying - or get sticky when ironed. If you just want fine gold glitter in an easy to apply medium that lasts - this is great product.

I bought it for a friend who needed to whiten their shoes. Overall, we used it to repaint the shoe white – since he has fabric shoes, this paint seemed to work really well. It needs a few coats though.

Bright and vivid on white. I’ve done some shirts with two coats, some with 4 coats. Doesn’t wear or wash out. Good quality. If you’re using on darker shirts, you’d probably need to do a white under layer coat of paint first, otherwise it comes out dark.

Not soft at all , very thick

I have used this for multiple projects and the colour stays even if you wash it. It can take a few cotes depending on the material but that’s to be expected.

Not if a liquid than I thought…. But works good. No slip.
