Can I use this on silk fabric?

Yes, I've seen demonstrations but haven't done it myself. However, it isn't permanent so it'll wash out. You have to soak it in Jacquard.

I only use it on paper. My instinct tells me it would not work on fabric since it smears even after I've let it dry overnight (and it would probably smear when washed). But maybe some one else has had success.

This is recommended for all fabrics. Just follow the instructions and it should work. Being outside in the elements you probably will need to apply often.

I didn't use if for that. I used it to glue fabric to leather -- and it was useless. It came apart after one wear. I think you better go with the other more expensive glues. This seems to only work for very thin fabric.

I used it on two silk dresses the week I was on vacation and it did the job just fine. If you hold it too close it might leave a water spot on the dress, but mine dried in no time and didn't leave a mark once it dried.

I haven't tried washing it yet, but I have heard that you can machine wash silk

I don't know for sure, but I would think you could use it with fabric as long as you don't wash it. If you want to wash it, you would probably have to use a washable glue. Aleene's has one but I don't remember the specific name of their glue that is washable.

Yes, you could use it on fabric. I would take into consideration the color you will be using against the color of your fabric. Have fun!

Haven't used on fabric, only resin sconces. Check manufacturer's website. Good Luck!

Used it on my silk blouse. It removed the stain without any damage to the fabric.

It is definitely not intended to be used on fabric or upholstery. It is for hard, non-porous surfaces.

I have not had a problem using my machine for that type of fabric. I did small projects though. I would say so long as you are using the right thread, needle and tension you should be ok.

Yes, though I'd do a test spot somewhere to make sure the fabric takes the paint the way you want it to look. You won't be able to "set" the paint as well as you can on other fabrics, since usually heat is what makes the pain set (iron or in the dryer) but you could use a hair blow dryer to be less damaging to the silk...I'd have to know more about the fabric and what you want to do with it to answer more specifically than that...

Some "spitting" on garments, but I have not tried it on silk or delicates as listed below. I find it useful for daily maintenance for work clothes, refreshing already worn clothes, and most everyday items. Keep in mind it has no temperature control as does an iron, and it IS a steamer! I rarely use the steam function on silk or other delicate items, and if I do, even an iron has the possibility of spitting.

I don't see why not. Fabric is fabric, regardless of what it is on. Don't use too much at first to be sure you don't make a mess with the white dust. Try using a vacuum cleaner to remove the bulk.

I have used it on silk, cotton, canvas, rayon, polyester, and nylon. (It even works on lycra or spandex but the stretch distorts and cracks the design.) There were no problems with the painting. Be sure to place a paper towel or something behind the fabric to catch the bleed-through. The only issue is when you use the iron to heat set the color. You will need to be careful about the heat for rayon and nylon (or lycra/spandex). While you want to use the highest setting, you do not want to melt the fabric. I set my iron 2 notches below the highest iron setting. You will want to test a corner to ensure the iron doesn't melt the fabric. But don't skip the step entirely. For hard-to-iron items, I took my hair dryer and, setting it at its highest heat, I held the blower at approximately 1/2 inch away from surface, close to it, and ran the dryer for about 1 minute over each 3 square inches of painted surface. I wouldn't rely on this to go through a washing machine but it will hold up through careful hand-washing.

I doubt if it can be used on Fabrics because it's very runny and gets all over the place and when it dries, it dries a beige colour and is obviously dried glue. There are fabric glues out there that Costumers use to make an instant hem but I don;t know the name of it.
