This new "Liquid Vinyl" paints on with a soft bristle or foam brush and easily cleans up with water. Once it is dried on your fabric, you will have an oilcloth type finish that remains pliable. Just imagine all the fun outdoor decorating projects you can make.
When it's dry, the water beads right up!

This is the first I've heard of the liquid Vinyl. I need to try it out!
ReplyDeleteThanks for keeping us current! I had no idea but it makes sense. I wonder what took them so long? LOL My projects are a little overwhelming at this time but I sure plan to try it out. Maybe by fall? Love your flag and toilets!
ReplyDeleteGreat project, Joan!! Thanks for the introduction to the liquid vinyl product!! So excited. I'll be ordering some to give it a try!! I was just thinking this morning of making some market totes, but wanted to make them with vinyl fabric. This will make pretty fabric vinyl!! LOL
ReplyDeleteLove your flag. I could think of lots of ideas for using the liquid vinyl. Does the product mention anything about colors fading outdoors? I like that it's waterproof and stays pliable, but in the New Mexico sun, stuff fades here and I would worry about fading. I guess you will have to report back to see how well your flag colors hold up outside Joan. I know there is a product called Odicoat for painting on fabric too, but never tried that one. Sounds like Liquid Vinyl is something to try. If I like it, I will be telling all my bag making friends online as they would love it too if it works well on bags.
ReplyDeleteFYI: Joan your link to the Liquid Vinyl and to the tutorial are not active links.
ReplyDeleteI love this!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun product! Lots of uses I am sure.
ReplyDeleteIt is always interesting to see a new product on the market. With a little imagination I can see a lot of projects in the works. Thanks for the great demo!
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find the neat horizontal hangers for the flags???? Please and Thanks,

Nice article. Is it paintable? I want to fix creases and tiny cracks in my vinyl car seats and then spray pain the whole seat with special car vinyl spray paint. Will it adhere to this product? will it endure seating on it repeatedly? Thanks
