Liquitex Fabric Medium - 118 ml


€13,92

Create glow-in-the-dark designs on fabric

Mix compatible glow pigment with Liquitex Fabric Medium for painting T-shirts, tote bags and fabric decorations. This fluid acrylic medium helps paint stick to fabric and reduces stiffness when dry.

What it does

  • No ironing needed: Liquitex do not require heat setting to fix it
  • Helps paint stay flexible: Reduces the stiff feel of acrylic paint on fabric.
  • Works with acrylic paint too: Mix into ready-made acrylic paint for fabric projects.

How to use with glow pigment

1. Prewash your fabric without softener to remove residues that can affect adhesion. Let it dry.

2. Two ways to mix. With ready-made glow paint: 1 part paint to 1 part medium. From pigment powder: start at 30% glow pigment to 70% medium by weight and stir thoroughly each time before painting.

3. Do not exceed 35% pigment. Build a stronger glow with thin 2-3 layers, letting each dry before adding another. Avoid heavy coats, which can make fabric stiff.

4. White or light-coloured fabric helps the glow appear brighter.

5. Test a spare piece for glow, flexibility and washing before decorating the whole item. Allow at least 4 days after fully drying before a gentle, cool test wash, giving the paint time to set.

FAQs

Find answers about mixing glow paint for fabric, applying thin layers and testing your design for flexibility and washing. - or visit our Full FAQ Page!.

Why use Fabric Medium for glow painting?

Fabric Medium helps acrylic paint grip fabric and remain more flexible after drying. It reduces stiffness, although thick paint layers can still make the fabric feel firm.

How do I mix glow pigment for fabric?

Easiest route: mix your Glow In The Dark Acrylic Paint 1:1 with Fabric Medium. Starting from pigment powder instead, stir about 25% pigment into acrylic paint by volume. You can experiment upwards for a stronger glow, but do not exceed 35% - past that the mix turns clumpy.

Do I need to wash the fabric before painting?

Yes. Prewash without fabric softener to remove residues that can affect adhesion. Let the fabric dry before painting.

How many glow in the dark paint layers should I apply?

Start with 2–3 thin layers, allowing each to dry. Extra layers can strengthen the glow, but heavy coatings make fabric stiff. Test the glow and flexibility before adding more.

Can I wash the finished design?

Test a painted sample first. Wait at least 4 days after the paint has fully dried, then hand wash gently in cool water and hang dry. Check for cracking, peeling or pigment loss before washing the finished item.
