Aw yeah!
Everytime I get a bonus, they add a new colour! Well, I guess this will be my last bonus for a while, if ever. May as well make it count (gosh, I'm assuming they're still going to honour the bonus, but who knows now? We were all sent home indefinitely at 4pm yesterday, and since the Chief Buffoon won't order a shutdown of non-essential businesses, our shop may not make it). Anyway, I digress. I was actually going to ask if there were plans for a yellow LIT, and maybe even a lilac LIT (although that might be really hard to charge being at the end of the spectrum), and lo and behold, there was a yellow LIT. Heck yes, I bought it.
I haven't actually used either the blue or yellow LIT yet, but I will post a review for them both once I do (I'm planning on making mini lightsabers for the kids with it. Mini ones only. That stuff is expensive). In the meantime:
YES! You CAN use LIT paint on fabric!
Semple told me that you can't, but I couldn't help it. After seeing how pathetic the Tulip glow paints are compared to LIT, I had to try it, just in case.
The trick is to mix it in with Tulip Fashion Glitter Bond first, then paint it onto fabric.
I painted it over dried fabric paint and it worked! I also made a space t-shirt, and painted it direct onto the fabric. It will need 2-3 coats as the coverage isn't very good. Just sprinkle however much of the powder you want directly into a dollop of the Glitter Bond, mix well, then spread or paint onto fabric or dried fabric paint. It's survived the washing machine at 30°, with no loss of quality, and the flexibility is maintained.
So YES, you can use LIT on fabric, as long as you do it right!
I have also mixed Pink LIT with Tulip pink glow paint, it does mix, but I only tried it on card, not fabric yet. The pigment did hold though, so I'm assuming it should work fine on fabric too. You could probably mix the LIT powder directly into fabric medium to get the same effect.
