Power shirt with Marabu Textil Neon
Neon is so powerful! The fluorescent day-glow paints reveal their luminous, vibrant appearance on light-coloured fabrics, and glow in UV black light. Textil black offers a wonderful contrast to the neon colours.

Tips and Tricks
- Textil neon is also ideal for stencilling. The thicker the paint is applied, the more intensely the colour glows in UV black light.
How it is done:
- Wash the fabric before use. The fabric needs to be free of any finishes and conditioners. Cover the work area thoroughly. Place paper or film between the layers of fabric.
- Using templates. Place the chosen motif (printout, your own picture) under the light-coloured fabric so it is visible through the front.
- Transfer the motif onto the fabric.
- Stir the colour well before use. Trace the motif with your chosen colour. Textil black offers a wonderful contrast to the neon colours. Leave to dry.
- Afterwards you can add decoration to the fabric with the Textil Painter. Use them to create special features.
- After drying, fix in the oven (8 minutes / 150 °C) or iron without steam for 3 minutes. After fixing, the fabric is washable to 40 °C.
