I purchased this to paint black satin bridesmaid sashes with acrylics mainly to prevent the cracking of using straight acrylic paints. Washability was not tested.

My stores didn't carry this product (Walmart nor Michaels), so for those who would like to know the back of the bottle reads:

Waterbased. Shake well. Mix 1 part medium to 2 parts paint. Clean up while wet with soap and water. Prewash fabric before painting to remove sizing. After painting, air-dry 24 hrs, then heat set before washing. Care: wash inside out with cool water. Bottle instructions are to mix 1 part fabric medium to 2 parts paint.

Pro:

-works with ANY brand of acrylic paints, doesn't have to be Martha Stewart (a big plus as I already had a huge paint collection I used it with Americana, Anita's & Apple Barrel).

-easy cleanup, soap & water or when dry it peels off skin like dry Elmer's Glue.

-fabric can flex/be bent without cracking the painting.

-mixes well with paints, no pigment separation issues.

Con:

-seems to make the paint "soak" into the fabric; it took me a couple coats to get the "true" color to show (but this may depend on what type of fabric you're painting)

-bottle isn't pour friendly; I painted in small color amounts & often only needed one or two drops of the medium. If the bottle is not tilted straight upside down, the drop runs down the top and will fall from somewhere on the side of the bottle. If bottle is tilted straight upside down, often 3-4 drops come out at a time. Not a major problem as I didn't need to be precise & just poured holding a paper towel on the side to wipe it down to prevent buildup, but worth mentioning since everyone likes things that are easy to use (hi to product development).

Thanks for reading, best of luck with your project!

I ordered this to mix with a Glidden paint to make fabric paint. I used it on a sofa and it went on super smooth. I had also ordered the Folk Art Medium Textile and used it as well. The Martha Stewart went on much smoother and there weren't as many roller marks. It seemed to take to the fabric faster I thought overall that it was a superior product so I ordered two more to complete the job.

Works great when mixed in with her acrylic paints. Perfect for using her stencils on fabric around the house. I used this on pillows. Looks great.
