Has anyone here ever tried painting on fabric with acrylic paint? Does it work? How different is it from actual fabric paint?

I used to do that, you can buy stuff to mix in with it that basically turns it into fabric paint.

You have to stretch the shirt across a flat surface so it lays flat. Otherwise the shirt will buckle and the paint will be difficult to apply

It works so long as it goes unwashed. Mix flat with gloss half and half and once it’s worn in it has a nice sheen to it

yes you have to do about 2 layers let it dry then get a damp wash cloths and iron over where you paint to get it to stay longer.

make sure to put a piece of cardboard or something sturdy in side the shirt, to prevent the front bleeding onto the back

it takes forever to dry and usually will bleed through the other side. when it drys finally, it hardens and cracks a bit.

try finding a fabric paint mixing medium, it’ll help it adhere, add flexibility etc. you can find it at most art stores!
