Marabu 3D Liner 4pc assortment

3D/Metallic/Glitter Liners on fabric?

The 3D/Metallic/Glitter Liners are suitable for use on cotton and mixed fabrics with up to 20% man-made fibres. Stretchy fabrics with elastane, very coarse fabrics or long fibre fabrics such as terry or velour are less suitable. On these, the 3D/Metallic/Glitter Liners might not be able to bond with the fibre sufficiently which could result in reduced permanence. Fabrics which cannot be ironed at cotton setting (150°C or 3 dots) are also not suitable.Removing finishes/pre-washing textiles

Before painting, new textiles have to be washed at least once without fabric conditioners. Fabric finishes and conditioners prevent the fibre from absorbing the paint. Colour fastness after fixing cannot be guaranteed in this case.Removing/washing out stains

Remove any stains from 3D/Glitter or Metallic Liners on clothes, floors etc. with lukewarm water and soap immediately.Decorative clay pot figures

The Marabu range provides the ideal partners for painting, embellishing and varnishing your clay pot figures: Decormatt Acryl, Decorlack Acryl and the Metallic, Glitter and 3D Liners. Serviette technique is also highly suitable for creating stunning designs on clay pots!Double-layer textiles

When painting double-layer textiles (T-shirts or pillow cases), always place a piece of cardboard between the fabric layers to prevent the paint from seeping through. This also makes painting on fabric easier, particularly for children.Paint application

The thicker you apply the Marabu Liner, the stronger the Glitter and 3D effect. Thicker application also increases the washability of the Glitter Liner on textiles.Suitable textiles

Marabu textile paints can be used to paint on all textiles (free from finishes and detergents) made of cotton, linen, jute, silk, and mixed fabrics up to max. 20 % man-made fibres. Do not use on knitware as this cannot be fixed to be washable.Glitter Liner on textiles

When using the Glitter Liner, apply an even, rich coat to ensure that the glitter particles are sufficiently embedded in the binding agent. This is a prerequisite for good adhesion on textiles, in addition to proper fixing.Small 3D animals on baking paper

Small 3D Liner animals can also be painted on baking paper and then puffed up in the oven. They can then easily be removed from the baking paper and adhered to other materials with glue.Combinations

Try combining Window Color with the Marabu Liners: Glitter or Metallic Liners are great for embellishing dried Window Color clings. Or use the 3D Liner for coloured outlines – do not puff up as this might cause the Window Color film to tear.Combining acrylic paints and special effects liners Glitter, Metallic, 3D

Objects painted with Decorlack Acryl and Decormatt Acryl can be subsequently embellished with the Glitter, Metallic and 3D Liners.Combining Window Color and special effects liners Glitter, Metallic, 3D

The Glitter or Metallic Liners are ideal for embellishing dried Window Color clings – simply leave to dry! Or use the 3D Liner for coloured outlines – do not puff up as this might cause the Window Color film to tear.The applied liner has come off

Any areas where the Liner has peeled off or washed off can be painted over and fixed. Already applied and fixed paint does not change substantially with this.Painting on textiles

When painting, ensure to achieve sufficient contact with the textile. Simply dropping the paint onto the textile does not achieve sufficient contact with the fibre and it would not be ensured that the textile is washable after fixing.Painting with paint tips

Simply screw the Marabu paint tips onto the Window Color bottle with a little pressure. They are available in the sizes 0.3-0.9 mm and allow delicate painting.Painting with paint tips on Marabu Liners

Use our metal Marabu paint tips for very fine lines and embellishments. Simply screw onto the plastic tip of the Liner. Exception: Due to the size of the glitter particles, the smallest size (0.3 mm) is not suitable for use with the Glitter Liner.Caring for painted textiles and silk

Never iron painted areas directly, always place a thin cotton cloth between fabric and iron.Puff paint on stone

3D Liner on stone, terracotta and similar materials should be puffed up on the oven (150°C) for 5-10 minutes, depending on thickness of the paint, as these materials require longer to heat up.Velvety surface with 3D

If the 3D Liner is applied in a thin and even coat (we recommend the Marabu Foam Roller), the surface will have a velvety appearance after puffing up.Drying before fixing

Painted textiles should only be fixed once the paint has fully dried. Leave to dry over night if possible.Enhancing the Glitter and Puff effect

The thicker the paint application of 3D or Glitter Liner, the greater the Glitter or puff effect.Washing painted textiles

Always wash painted textiles inside out and use a mild detergent. Never place a hot iron directly on the painted area. Iron either from the reverse or through a cloth.Serviette technique with 3D effect

The 3D Liner is a true all-round talent and can also be used for serviette technique: Enhance the three-dimensional effect of a serviette technique design by using puff paint for individual textured highlights!Painting T-shirts

When painting T-shirts, simply slide a piece of cardboard underneath the fabric to prevent the paint from seeping through the layers.

3D Liner on stone

Why does the Marabu 3D Liner not puff up on stone?

Materials such as stone or terracotta take longer to heat up. After a drying time of at least 6 hours, it will therefore take about 5 - 10 minutes at 150 °C in the oven until the Marabu 3D Liner puffs up, depending on the thickness of the paint.Insufficient adhesion of Glitter, Metallic, 3D Liner on textiles

What could be the reason for insufficient adhesion of Glitter, Metallic, 3D Liner on textiles?

It is very important to lightly press the tip of the liner into the fabric while painting. After a drying time of approx. 6-12 hours, iron the Marabu 3D Liner from the reverse on a soft surface at cotton setting for 10-60 seconds. Or place into the oven for 10-60 seconds until the paint has puffed up matt and textured. Fix the Marabu Metallic and Glitter Liners from the front through a thin cloth for 3 minutes at cotton setting or place into the oven for 8 minutes at 150°C. Painted textiles have to be washed at 40 °C and ironed inside out.Glitter, Metallic and 3D Liners on any fabric

Are the Marabu Glitter, Metallic and 3D Liners suitable for painting on any fabric?

No. The Glitter, Metallic and 3D Liners are primarily suitable for painting on cotton and mixed fabrics with up to 20% man-made fibres. Stretchy fabrics with elastane, very coarse fabrics or long fibre fabrics such as terry or velour are less suitable.Combines use of Glitter and 3D Liner on textiles

Can the Marabu Glitter Liner and the Marabu 3D Liner be combined to be used on textiles?

Yes. However, the Glitter Liner has to be applied first and then fixed for 3 minutes with an iron after drying. Then apply the 3D Liner and fix for 2-3 minutes with an iron after drying.Using a hair dryer to puff up the 3D Liner design

Why can I not puff up the Marabu 3D Liner with a hair dryer?

It is important to use a powerful hair dryer (on the highest setting) to puff up the Marabu 3D Liner. We recommend holding the hair dryer at a slight angle.Fixing Glitter, Metallic, 3D Liner

How do I fix Marabu Glitter, Metallic, 3D Liner paint?

The applied paint should dry for approx. 6 hours (depending on thickness of the coat). When using Glitter and Metallic Liners on textiles (cotton and mixed fabrics with up to 20% man-made fibres), iron through a thin cloth at cotton setting or fix in a pre-heated oven (8 min./150 °C) after drying. Puff up the applied 3D Liner with a powerful hair dryer (on the highest setting) or in a pre-heated oven (2-15 minutes depending on thickness/150 °C). When using on textiles, iron all painted sections from the reverse at cotton setting on a soft surface without pressure for 2-3 minutes or in the oven (2-15 minutes depending on thickness/150 °C).
