Pigments are highly concentrated tint colours that are added to a transparent base to make fabric paint for hand painting or screen printing. Different shades of colour are achieved by varying the quantity of pigment added to the transparent base (30ml makes approx. 1/2 to 1 quart of paint at medium intensity *). These pigments and paints are completely inter-mixable and can be set with an iron. Pigments can also be used to tint acrylic paints or even latex house paint. Our current line of pigment to 100% solvent free pigments and are organic based (except White 750).
* Fluorescents need a lot more pigment to Base approx 15-20%
