Frequently Asked Questions

What is Angelus 2-Soft fabric medium additive used for?

Angelus 2-Soft is a fabric medium additive mixed with acrylic paint to keep textiles, leather, and soft materials flexible after painting. It prevents paint from stiffening fabrics, making it ideal for custom boot decoration, saddle blanket painting, shoe liners, and embellished leather tack.

How do I mix and use Angelus 2-Soft fabric medium?

Mix Angelus 2-Soft with Angelus acrylic paint in a 1:1 ratio. Apply multiple coats to your fabric or leather until you achieve full, even coverage. Allow the paint to dry completely, then heat-set using a heat gun at 300 degrees F for 3 - 5 minutes for a permanent, washable finish.

Is heat-setting required for Angelus 2-Soft painted projects?

Yes, heat-setting is required. After the paint dries, use a heat gun at 300 degrees F for 3 - 5 minutes. This step permanently bonds the fabric medium and acrylic paint to the material, creating a durable, washable finish that withstands daily wear and cleaning.

Can I use Angelus 2-Soft on leather and suede?

Yes, Angelus 2-Soft works on leather, suede, and textile surfaces. It is commonly used for hand-painted leather boots, saddle blankets, custom tack, and embellished western accessories. Always test on a small area first and ensure proper ventilation during application and heat-setting.

How much does one 1 oz. bottle of Angelus 2-Soft cover?

Coverage varies depending on paint mixing ratio and application thickness. Since you mix 1:1 with acrylic paint, one 1 oz. bottle of fabric medium will extend one 1 oz. bottle of acrylic paint to cover multiple coats on leather or textiles. One bottle typically handles several small to medium projects.

Is Angelus 2-Soft safe to use?

Angelus 2-Soft contains formaldehyde. Use only with proper ventilation in a well-aired space. Keep the container capped when not in use. Keep out of reach of children. If splashed into eyes, flush with water immediately. Wash skin contact with soap and water.
