Does the fabric harden after using the glow paint?

Yes, but the amount of stiffness is in direct relationship with the thickness of the paint. The more layers of paint, the stiffer the fabric under it becomes.

It does fade in sunlight after a while. I haven't tested for loss of strength though.

How ironic..I literally applied this just last night. You can see the color change right when you put it on..it gives you a glow. But if you do it in the evening, you will see it definitely the next morning

I used it with flat wall paint with no problems. I did a test on the same kind of fabric before I painted my curtains.

I found that putting it out in the sun (after its been printed of course) made the glow significantly brighter. As far as glow time I can say for sure but I would assume it would make it glow longer

yes, however it will only cause the top half of the picture to glow. It still looks amazing.

this is made out of synthetic fabric of relatively good construction that should withstand reasonable outdoor conditions. however, subjecting it to excessive winds, or wet freezing conditions will tear it apart just like everything else left outside. I would caution you that this type of fabric is not resistant to fading.

It eventually hardens....If using on cake pops to decorate, use just enough to place and hold the product...if you use to much it will slide

There appears to be a gentle fabric coating to prevent fading for the first year. It is not a durable Sunbrella type fabric.

yes you can use fabric paint on this. I used it on the one that I purchased and it came out perfect.

It works better in warmer weather, and you usually do not want to do it in direct sunlight. In the final step, you cover it with the plastic square and then you want the suns UV rays shining on it. it only takes a few seconds for it to harden.

Hello! I covered a rip on the top of the middle couch cushion on a leather and vinyl couch I have. The tape has been in place for about 2 months, without lifting, cracking, or otherwise breaking down. It really STICKS! The only problem I have, is that the surface texture of the couch is dull/satiny, and the tape is very shiny, which is just my "eye for perfection," flaring up! :) If someone is using it to patch a rip, it is a workhorse. I bought clear, because I did not find any of their tape in the reddish brown color of my couch. In a vehicle, one would consider changes in weather and temperatures. Although, I have used black Gorilla Tape in my barn, to cover sharp edges of a wire partition. It's been in there for about a year, through minus degree weather, and very hot weather, and still holding strong, with very little or no fraying, even though my gelding rubs his body against it regularly, as it is at a level to his shoulders and lower hips.

I doubt it... it's just acrylic paint. I used it on a t-shirt, and it flaked quite a bit. After more than a year, the paint is pretty faded from washing.

Like all fabric with a lot of sunlight, it will fade to a grayish charcoal color. It will not effect performance.

In the past I have tried that and the plastic from model became soft...like the paint was too strong. To be safe I would stick with paint made for models.

I've used it on vinyl and plastic with great success. I'd say that if the fabric is not prone to pilling, it should receive the paint well.

No, the decal does not glow in the dark. It must have been the switch plate they were talking about.Sorry for the delay, but I had misplaced the decal and just located it and put it on this past week. Just found this inquiry again!
