Cadence Hi-Lite Magic Metallic Fabric Paint


Transform your fabric projects with the enchanting Cadence Hi-Lite Magic Metallic Fabric Paints!

High quality, water based special effect metallic fabric paint. Designed to cover dark backgrounds with light application. The hi-lites are practically transparent on light colours and show up beautifully on dark ones. Fabric is first of all washed and dried. Ironing is required in order to make a permanent bond to the fabric. 1 day after application, iron for 5 minutes for fixing. Shake well. No thinning. Intermixable colours. Cleans up easily with soap and water. Non toxic. Certified by EN 71 & CE.



Each of the six mesmerising colours in this new range appears identical in the bottle, but when applied to dark surfaces, they reveal their true, vibrant metallic hues—perfect for adding a magical touch to your creations. Specially formulated for use on dark fabrics, Hi-Lite Magic works wonders on black surfaces and is particularly stunning on denim and jeans.




Metallic Finish: Achieve a brilliant metallic sheen that adds depth and dimension to your fabric projects.

Creamy Consistency: Smooth and easy to apply, this paint glides over fabrics with ease, ensuring a uniform application.

Flexible & Soft Texture: Once dry, the paint remains soft and flexible, so your fabrics stay comfortable and wearable.

High Durability: Machine washable at 30°C on a delicate setting, Hi-Lite Magic paints won’t fade or darken over time.

Water-Based Formula: Safe and easy to use, these paints are odourless and dry quickly for efficient crafting.

High Coverage: Just a small amount of paint provides excellent coverage, and colours can be mixed to create custom shades.


Application Tips:

Best on Dark Fabrics: For optimal results, apply Hi-Lite Magic on dark fabrics, especially black cotton, for the most vibrant metallic effects.

Moistening the Surface: Lightly spray water on the fabric before applying the paint for smoother application.

Application Tools: Use a roller brush or synthetic brush for even coverage.

Protect Your Work: Place a protective layer underneath the fabric to prevent paint from transferring to the back side.

Natural Drying: Allow the paint to dry naturally for the best results. If using a blow dryer, keep it at a distance and use warm air.

Heat Set for Durability: After the paint has dried, fix the design with an iron to ensure lasting results.

Available in convenient 59ml bottles, Cadence Hi-Lite Magic Metallic Fabric Paints are perfect for anyone looking to bring a touch of metallic magic to their fabric projects. Whether you're customising clothing, upcycling denim, or creating unique textile art, these paints are your new go-to for achieving stunning metallic effects that last.
