Jacquard Permanent Textile Colour Quart Jar — Apple Green fabric paint, heat-set and flexible

Jacquard Permanent Textile Colour in Apple Green is a professional-grade, heat-set fabric paint that delivers long-lasting, vibrant colour for natural and synthetic textiles.

This quart of Apple Green offers a concentrated, semi-transparent hue designed for artists, crafters and textile decorators who need reliable, wash-resistant colour. Formulated to remain flexible and soft after curing, the paint works across a wide range of fabrics — from cotton and denim to synthetics and outdoor textiles — and can be thinned or mixed to achieve custom effects without compromising hand or durability.

How do I make the Apple Green paint permanent?

To set the colour, allow the painted fabric to dry completely, then heat-cure. Use a household iron set to the fabric's recommended temperature or tumble-dry on the hottest setting to fix the pigment into the textile fibres for robust, colourfast results.

• Let paint air dry fully before heat-setting.
• Iron through a press cloth or parchment for 3–5 minutes on matching fabric heat.
• Tumble-dry on high for 20–30 minutes as an alternative.

Will this paint keep fabric soft and wearable?

Yes — the formula is made to remain flexible so garments and accessories stay comfortable after application. It leaves a soft hand rather than a stiff coating, making it suitable for clothing items and wearables that need to move naturally with the body.

• Specifically formulated to minimize stiffness after curing.
• Suitable for stretch fabrics, knits, and everyday garments.
• Test on a small swatch if maximum softness is critical.

Can I customize the opacity or texture of Apple Green?

The paint comes semi-transparent and can be adjusted to your needs. Mix with up to 25% water or Jacquard’s Colourless Fabric Medium to increase transparency without altering the paint’s feel, or layer for deeper, more opaque coverage.

• Mix with water or Colourless Fabric Medium up to 25% for sheerer looks.
• Layer multiple coats for richer, more saturated colour.
• Blend with other Jacquard colours to create custom shades.

What surfaces and projects are suitable for this quart jar?

• Works on cotton, linen, rayon, polyester and blended fabrics.
• Great for trainers, backpacks, upholstery and canvas.
• Also useful on porous craft surfaces that need vivid, permanent colour.
