The wash-resistant ink of the laundry marker ensures that the autograph will bring you joy for a long time.  This way, your garment becomes a unique keepsake and a conversation starter every time you wear it.

How do you fix fabric paint to fabric?
 

Fixing textile paint to fabric is an important step to ensure that your creative designs remain permanent, waterproof, and washable. 

1. Ironing – The classic:
   • After you have applied your design to the fabric using fabric paint, let it dry thoroughly.
   • Cover the painted design with a thin cotton cloth to avoid direct contact between the paint and the iron, or iron the garment right side out.
   • Iron over the painted area for about 5 minutes to fix the paint.  This makes the result washable up to 60°C .
2. Hair dryer – for things you can't iron:
   • For example, if you are painting shoes, you can use a hot hairdryer instead of an iron.
   • Treat the dry fabric with hairdryer air on the hottest setting to fix the color.
   • However, you should know that using a hairdryer to set the colors doesn't do the job as well as using an iron. This means the colors won't be as wash-resistant. If you have the choice, you should always use an iron.
