Fabricoat - Fabric Paint for Furniture - 17oz / 500ml Dark Blue - Restore or Change the Color of Couches, Chairs, Upholstery, Soft Furnishings, Car Interiors, Clothing, & Footwear

Very nice color, needs many coats to not be splotchy and does make the fabric a little stiff but other wise does great for my needs

So I purchased the used couch which I thought I would never do because I thought it would gross me out. I had a professional cleaning company to clean the sofa and unfortunately not all the marks on the fabric came out. My boyfriend had suggested me painting the fabric. At first I was not a fan I thought it would come out crunchy. Watched a lot of videos read a lot of reviews. Decided on this blue that's almost a jewel color. The couch was a gold to start with. I bought a round large blending brush to try and help me blend in the paint. I bought a lot of paint and halfway through I bought a lot more worried I might not have enough. I made sure I sprayed the couch as I was going with water. And the paints actually went farther than I thought it would. My wedding section down with a spray bottle. My first coat was thin I thought I needed to do it then so it wouldn't be crunchy. The blending brush was a huge huge help. I blend it in and bolt directions. I think this sofa came out absolutely gorgeous. Not crunchy. I love that you can still see the textile through the paint. I love the sofa even more than I did when I purchased it.I have already recommended this paint to a few of my friends because it is terrific... There is no smell with this. It went on well. Brush is cleaned up easily. I might try to Scotch guard this after it is dry. Nobody has mentioned doing that I hope it works out okay I'll try a small area first

Pros: easy to apply, adheres well. Nice colorCons: The first application penetrates into the fabric and appears to have little coverage and color authenticity. The second coat gives you the coverage and achieves the color. This requires more product than you think.Bottom line: I still love it. This product allowed me to change the color of the fabric on an old cornice board to match my new color scheme in the fraction of the cost of new fabric. I did not even remove it from the wall. You would never know that it was a different color before.I cannot speak to durability and wear at this time.

I ordered two bottles of this at the same time to have enough paint to cover one chair. I received them at different times and when I did, the colors did not match perfectly. I ended up having to pour them all into one bucket and mix it up so the colors would blend.The directions on the bottle were covered with a sticker that I couldn’t remove without also removing the directions, so I read the reviews to figure out the best way to use it. I was very doubtful that I would be able to paint the chair and it not feel super crunchy afterwards and my doubts proved true. I had to put at least two and sometimes three coats in places to get good coverage and ended up with a BEAUTIFULLY green crunchy chair that I will put on my porch.

I painted my large dark brown suede couch with the black paint. It went on decently especially if I dampened the fabric first. Be prepared for it to feel different. Paint will naturally cause the feel to be less soft but I don't mind the difference personally. It does take a lot of paint but that's understandable since it has to soak into the fabric. Now I'm just wondering and hoping it lasts the wear and tare of being used everyday.

The product itself works decent but the value for the amount you get is just not there. I purchased this to brighten up my faded [but already navy blue] outdoor chair cushions. An entire bottle did not even cover 1 coat on 2 standard size cushions. For the price I might as well have just bought new ones and saved myself the time and effort.

I love this product so much, just go ahead and size up because you WILL need more! IT dries very quick and is super easy to use. It does not come off or transfer at all and the color is AMAZING!

Used this to bring life back to an emerald green velvet vintage sofa. Easy to work with. Some stiffness in the fabric but I tried to brush it all out- no transfer of dye once it dried.
