Fabricoat Fabric Paint – Restore or Change the Colour of Any Fabric - Paint Directly Onto Fabric - Transform Anything – Sofas, Lampshades, Car Interiors (250ml, Black)

I had a, difficult to replace due to size, small lampshade that was a bit yellow. I bought the orange version of this paint (a beautiful russet colour) and it is excellent. It is lovely to use (took 5 minutes per coat), and looks fantastic. I could not be happier and would definitely buy this product again.

Okay, so going to level with you all. I used half as much as recommended as I'm cheap and wanted a quick fix for my manky ikea grey sofa that very early on looked faded and roughhhhh. So before investing in totally new covers (custom as they don't make our sofa anymore, so would be minimum £350) I decided to give this a bash. I used 3 parts paint to 1 part water dilution- they don't say to do this, like I said, I'm cheap. I washed the original covers and whilst they were still wet, over a series of 3 days, repeatedly painted being sure to concentrate on anything obviously visible and the piping edges. Yes it's a bit messy - I probably would advise gloves but hey, I'm an unorganized person so I did sport blue hands for a couple days afterwards. Overall pretty easy to use a d paint, make sure the fabric you're applying it to is wet as it does soak in and look more natural rather than just painted on top. I painted on a patchy dark grey sofa with the blue paint and the colour playoff is fabulous!! Would for sure recommend for any quick fixes or up cycles anyone is doing. I've tried on other furniture in the past with other brands and can honestly say this was the best I've used yet. Very effective and great coverage. Do it!! Just go for it!!

I bought a 250 ml bottle hoping it would sufficient for my bucket chair. Its now dried, but it is patchy, I'm going to buy another 250 ml bottle, I think that will be sufficient. I think the product is good, really its up the individual's judgment to know how much is needed. I bought my chair from British Heart Foundation charity, it was an absolute bargain at £20! I just want to transform it from a weak mustard to a rich gold.

You will be so surprised with this paint on colour,I was really impressed,tried a few other products that were useless,this done the job and is really easy to use.would recommend it takes a few coats so 1 bottle done 1 swede chair (top,sides,back,seat so does work out a bit expensive but alot cheaper that buys new dinning table chairs.

I was very hopeful after seeing such good reviews, but after doing 4 coats and leaving the armchairs to dry in between the paint still looks uneven, I followed instructions to paint in opposite directions to ensure even coverage and used the buffer brush in between coats once dry but it still looks uneven and like they have been painted plus the fabric texture isn’t as soft! Had I read a review like this I would not have wasted the money!

I used this on a hat that was very sun bleached rather than throw it away. The results look great, however I gave it a bit of a rinse when it dried and the colour ran a lot (I've done this a 2nd time since and it didn't seem to run at all). So I'd be a little hesitant using this on anything likely to get wet. The other issues is that it had definitely made the fabric a little more solid and less flexible, its not the end of the world but something worth noting.

Just received mine and painted a velvet ottoman, fantastic results. One bottle did this large ottoman. Highly recommend.

I recently purchased a vintage VW van that was really tired inside. It was lined with dirty grey felting and I couldn’t afford to get it relined as it would have costed £1000’s. I decided to give this fabric paint a go. I mixed the green and white and got a lovely sage green. I was very sceptical as first and wasn’t convinced it would work. I tested it on a small area which wasn’t visible and I was so impressed. Even though the felt was ridged, it sunk into the fabric and coloured it beautifully. I tried a number of different brushes and sponges and found a medium paint brush the best. I sprayed the fabric first with water which is essential I think, and stippled the colour on so it went into the ridges. The result is fantastic!!! I’ve used 2 bottles of white and one on green so far, but will need to order another two to finish the ceiling and boot. Although the paint is quite expensive and it’s costed me over £100, that is nothing compared to what I would have spent refelting it. It’s also added so much value to the camper van . I’m so pleased I’m going to purchase another bottle to paint a tired chair I have. Thank you for this product and I’ll post a picture when finished.
