Product description

Powertex fabric hardener and textile hardener is an environmentally friendly water-based liquid sculpting medium. Powertex can replace polyester for fabric hardening and textile hardening.

Powertex can harden absorbent materials such as textiles, paper, cardboard, fabrics, leather and fiberglass. Powertex can be easily combined with self-hardening clays, concrete, stone, ceramic, wood, sand and Stone Art Product. Powertex is used for making sculptures, paintings, decorative objects and jewelry.

Powertex Transparent is a white liquid that dries to a mat finish showing the original patterns and colors from the hardened fabrics. You can create any Powertex colour by adding Powercolor or Colortricx pigments to Powertex Transparent. Dissolve the pigment in a little warm water and stir in the Powertex. Once dry your artwork can be decorated with oil paints, acrylics, latex or Powercolor mixed with Easy Varnish. This combination makes the paint instantly waterproof.

Powertex air dries but warm air from a blow dryer or radiator accelerates the drying time.

IMPORTANT: Mix/shake/invert the bottles periodically over longer storage periods to prevent the product thickening.

Specifications

How to use Powertex hardener?
Powertex textile hardener and fabric hardener is ready to be used straight from the container. Shake the bottle well before use. Any sunken particles on the bottom of the bottled can be loosened by adding a little bit of boiling water; shake well.
On cold days, put the bottle in a warm area (like on the radiator) to increase the velocity of the fluid.
Cut old T-shirts, blankets, baby clothes or other absorbent materials into strips or pieces (100% natural fibers work best). Dip those into Powertex, wring well and drape or wrap around a frame. Tools and hands can be cleaned with warm water and soap. Protect your clothing. Once dry, Powertex can only be removed mechanically.
All Powertex colours are water resistant, except for the transparent one. Use Easy Varnish to make the Transparent Powertex waterproof and to protect the pigments you used. The wax in this water-based, non-toxic Varnish makes your artwork water- and weather proof. Allow your work to dry for six weeks before putting it outside.
Powertex is absolutely safe for humans and animals and meets the highest European and American safety standards. Powertex has undergone extensive testing and has been awarded the AP Seal.

Important: Powertex is not frost free while liquid. Don't store or transport below 0°C! Minimum working temperature for Powertex is 10°C. After Powertex is cured, the temperature does not affect a finished product anymore.
