How to Paint on a Puffer Jacket Using Angelus Paints: Artist, Anthony Gomes Shows You How

Before any paint touches the fabric, surface prep is crucial. Puffer jackets are usually made from nylon or polyester with a water-resistant coating. Start by cleaning the area with a damp cloth and rub the surface clean.

Once your jacket is prepped and dry, it’s time to bring your design to life. Anthony Gomes uses Angelus Leather Paint because it’s flexible, vibrant, and works well on synthetic materials when applied correctly. Use light, even coats with a soft brush or airbrush for smoother results.

For fabric or soft surfaces, we recommend mixing a 1:1 ratio of the leather paint with Angelus 2-Soft. Let each layer dry before adding another to avoid cracking.

For crisp lines and intricate artwork, use Angelus Micro Detail Paint Brushes. These high-quality brushes help you nail small shapes, lettering, and outlines—perfect for statement pieces like Gomes’ signature comic-style graphics.

To protect your design from moisture and wear, finish with Angelus Acrylic Finisher or Angelus 4-Coat. Use a heat gun or blow dryer to set the paint if you’ve mixed it with 2-Soft. This step ensures your custom jacket is durable and wearable all season long.
