Customer photo review of Fabric Paint -- Purple
Julie-anne F.Verified
Our sofa was impossible to wash because of the cushion buttons and we were going to replace it. Then I saw Fabricoat on Facebook and thought I'd give it a try. The purple is a great colour and covered the original blue well. Some areas needed two coats but it was easy to apply. And it saved me buying a new sofa!

Would recommend but had to persevere - took four coats to get it looking good. It went weirdly patchy after the third coat and I almost gave up. But now the fourth coat is on it looks great and the orange colour is perfect, really vibrant. It took nearly two 500ml bottles to do the footstool, which measures roughly 80x30x60cm. The paint didn’t smell and washed off hands etc really easily. As other reviewers have said, the texture of the fabric is a little rougher now (and spaniel dog hair stic...

I wasn’t sure this would work over dark grey material but I thought I’d take a chance. It was absolutely brilliant, such good coverage with just one coat. I bought a 2.5l pack but not sure I’ll need the whole thing so I’m basically painting all my furniture green 🤣

My lampshades were originally grey, I was a bit sceptical whether this product would work but I am so happy with the result. Was really easy to paint and didn’t take long to dry. My lampshades look great, I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.

I wasn’t sure it would turn out how I hoped but the fabric paint worked a treat on my old yellow chair! It was either a trip to the skip or try fabric paint. The grey came out well and the subtle pattern of the fabric comes through well. The chair looks lived in and is really comfortable to sit in. No residue from the paint and it has softened up nicely. I’m really pleased.

The chair was my late father-in-laws. It is a comfy chair well made, it seemed a shame to send it the landfill, just because it didn’t fit in with our decor. Before and after picture of chair, shows how it looks. The paint is thick and glides on well. The chair needed 4 coats of fabric paint to achieve the look. Now we just have to wait to see how well it responds to being used. So far I am delighted with the results, it has given an old chair an updated look.

I would like show you before and after, but I wasn’t able to add the before photo. This chair fabric was cream. The fabric paint went on easily and was easy to clean up as well. Definitely recommend this product.

I didn’t take a before photo, I wish i had but did take some during photos. I have a crushed grey velvet bed and this paint is amazing. I used 2.5lts; 2 coats and it covered beautifully and so easy to use. I didn’t brush it as I wasn’t concerned about it being ‘stiff’ and it is a bit but i absolutely love how tit turned out. Would definitely recommend

I can’t say enough how pleased I am with this fabric paint. I bought the 500ml and it was more than enough to do this chair. It’s imperative you add water to the paint if you want to get a good bang for your buck. I used a regular tea/coffee mug , poured some of the paint in a quarter of the way up, added another quarter cup of water and mixed. It doesn’t take away from the potency of the colour, did what it needed to do and then some. Left for 48 hours to ensure was thoroughly dry, although it...

I had to order more product because the pile on my couch is very thick. The amount of product didn't cover any of the back side of the couch. I ordered more product directly from the manufacturer in Britain as it was less expensive than ordering 5-500ml bottles from Amazon. And, with Trump and Tariffs happening, I'd rather support Britain. I will be using some of the order I just received to do the back of my couch and my 2-seater sofa.

Easy to use. Needed two coats because of the texture of the chair. I used it on a chair I’ve bought in a charity shop which I thoroughly cleaned before painting. I got a recycled chair in the colour I liked for a fraction of the price of buying new.

Great product. I ordered the brush and paintbrush and this helped to give a nice even finish. Love the orange colour! Took a good two coats to cover but love the result. Great way to up cycle a very tired armchair 👍

Really impressed with the coverage of a previously grey footstool. Saved me £350 to recover it to go with our new sofa. Easy to apply, and although a bit hard on top to start with it is softening up.

Easy to use and the colour is wonderful- far better then I expected. Needed to do two coats as the fabric was thinner on the shade than I realised, but it has turned out great- will definitely use the product for future repurposing

Had 8 chairs come in to the charity shop in cat scratched condition. 2 coats and they look great. Took 750ml to put 2 coats on 8 chairs. However did take a long time to dry on vinyl

Had expensive bed and wanted to change colour of bed base to match new carpet and colour scheme. Didn't want valance sheet anymore. Trusted the process advised and went with it. Absolutely thrilled with the result and would recommend this product. Very pleased and would use again.

I wanted to bring a bit of the greenery of the garden indoors so I used Olive Green to update an old grey sofa that had been left in the house when we moved in. I only applied one coat and a couple of days later it looks amazing! Love the colour and the finish!

Coverage wasn't as bad as some people say! I watered it down too much to start with, but did find mixing with water instead of spraying the fabric worked better (on velvet). The chairs were a light pink before and the new colour is lovely.

I painted two grey chairs with the olive green. They did need two coats but I am happy with the results. Fabricoat has great customer care. The first order I was mistakenly sent the wrong order but they corrected it without making a fuss which is rare these days. Would definitely recommend.

I love the transformation of this old cushion, it looked really tired but now it looks like new. The first coat soaked it up quickly but the second coat went on easily. I would recommend it

I used the dark green to cover 6 dining room chairs. 2 coats were needed for full coverage (if it looks patchy in the photo that’s the ceiling light shining on it). I ordered 5L and have 250ml left which I can use for any mishaps in the future. Product was easy to use and I’m well chuffed with the results

This hand chair was so stained and dirty. Even after a professional stream clean. Recovering was too expensive so I tried your product as a last resort! Wow! It took me 2 hours to apply one coat and it looks like a new chair!! Very very happy with the results, I'll probably give it a second coat just to finish it off.

I picked a big project to paint, a Sectional with a pastel colored design. I mixed 4 different colors to cover a woven pastel fabric. I used 3 coats of 12x68 fluid oz. paint for a sectional. An additional coat is needed for the cushions, but I really like the change! It was easy to use...I gave the fabric a good misting before appying the paint to help the paint absorb. It's pricey to cover upholstery fabic but I'll use the product again.

Was grey! No chance of buying such a small shade in that colour - in a room full of BIG lamps & shades mainly creams. This fabric paint was the PERFECT, BRILLIANT solution.

I am sooooo impressed!!! This is amazing and the end result is so good you would never know it’s been painted! The coverage quoted is a bit off the mark, to get an even finish you will need more than it says on the website! But still I am super happy and will definitely be purchasing more immediately

I loved using it.it was over a brocade fabric and it needs another brush to soften it more. When I first started I wasn't sure about it but now it's all finished it's great. Just the colour I wanted. I even had enough to do a matching lampshade. It took 2 bottles.

So happy with the results, I bought 2.5L for a 4ft bed, was worried I wouldn’t have enough but 2 coats and still have enough left to do some matching lampshades. Would recommend this product, saves on buying new furniture!

Lovely paint to work with.I had some tired looking dining table chairs what needed recovering to match my up cycling table project.it worked out easier and cheaper to buy your fabric dye so I gave it a go and as you can see it didn’t disappoint very happy with the result. One tip I did find was instead of spraying the fabric I actually went over with a wet cloth first to get the chair quite damp and this proved to make the paint spread better and go further. Fabulous product and will definitely ...

Was going to buy a new sofa but decided to give the paint a go on my cream sofa. Application really easy using both brushes & dries well. Only applied one coat, I prefer the look & didn't want to go any darker. 1 large & 1 small bottle of paint covered 3 seater sofa & armchair. Hopefully given my sofa a few more years & my cat likes it! 😊

I ordered 2.5 l (5 bottles) for this big job and I still have 1 bottle left unopened. (Painted the lamp shade too) This is 2 coats on, covered only where we can see it, didnt paint the fabric under the headrest or at the back of the sofa etc. I read reviews before starting where someone said that to mix the paint with water is actually better than water spaying the sofa first. I thought I would try this method first and this is how I’ve done it all, probably this is why I used only 4 bottles as ...

I had some mismatched furniture, using the fabricoat paint brought it all together. I would say if doing small areas, like buttons, it’s not worth brushing in between as I found I got marks on upholstery that I wasn’t painting. Otherwise it was a very easy process.

Delighted with this product! I was going to get rid of this armchair as I hated the colour but I liked the shape of the chair. I googled, ‘how to dye a chair’ and Fabricoat came up and I was impressed with the reviews so decided to have a go and I’m so glad that I did! It was easy to apply and I took me a few hours per coat. I applied two coats and used x2 500ml. 500ml is enough for one coat but I’m glad I bought the extra bottle for the second coat, even though I have got probably a third of a...

I was concerned my old swivel chair that I loved wouldn't match my new blue sofa. My husband suggested Fabricoat as he had seen it online. I was sceptical but agreed to give it a go. Wow! I am so impressed by the coverage and the colour match to my new sofa. Would highly recommend 👌

The website gave clear instructions and guidance how to use and paint your chosen item. I did, however need to order a second 250 ml bottle which I wasn’t anticipating, but it probably varies depending on the fabric that you are covering. Overall, I am really happy with the result.

Painted a cream lampshade with the green fabric paint and it came up fab! Even when lit up, there are no streaks. Saved me a small fortune not having to buy a new shade. Had enough left to change a small bathroom unit from pink to green too and it looks brand new! Love it!
