Used this to paint (yes paint!) my dirty old Ugg boots!
Hey guys, I used this product to turn my acrylic paint into "fabric paint". I mixed equal parts of this product + acrylic paint and started painting my super dirty Ugg boots (what can I say, I'm not buying another pair of Uggs for $200+ when I can spend $15 in supplies to make them look new again!). I will post photos of the results (understand, I wasn't super careful on the paint job... but they still look good, I think). A few notes incase you decide to attempt this yourself. 1) if you skip the liquitex and just use your acrylic paint, your Uggs with feel like cardboard. Don't do it. 2) Stuff socks in your Uggs before you start so they keep their shape. 3) It's ok to use a higher ratio of liquitex to paint (more liquitex, less paint), the consistency of the paint will be thinner, but the result will be a softer finish when they dry 4) Let it dry a full 24 hours and then use your hair dryer to heat it up and lock in the paint. After all this, I plan on spraying them with a waterproofer (I ordered one here, called Kiwi Camp Dry. It arrives tomorrow, so we'll see if it works!). Oh yeah, I also ordered new Ugg insoles on Amazon for around $15, so the insides would feel brand new). Hope this helps someone!! BTW, you can use any paint color you want. I used Martha Stewart Satin Sycamore Bark.
