What customers say

  • Don’t pass this up

    IMHO this stuff beats Golden900 by a mile. The paint just merges with the fabric, not just sitting on top . Two passes gave me the opacity I was looking for.

  • First Timer

    Every product that I’ve bought this far has been amazing! The paints are so smooth and the heat gun makes projects so much easier to get done!

Frequently asked questions

How do you paint jeans permanently?

Mix Angelus Paint 1:1 with 2-Soft, paint your design, let it dry, then heat set it with a heat gun.

Do I need 2-Soft to paint denim?

You can paint denim without it, but 2-Soft keeps the painted area soft and flexible on the fabric.

Will the paint crack on jeans?

Thin coats mixed with 2-Soft stay flexible. Heavy coats are more likely to crack.

Do you offer free shipping?

Yes. Orders of $49 or more ship free within the continental U.S.
