I don't know about the Jacquard brand, but most fabric paints are designed to 
paint on fabric - not other paint.  It bonds with the fabric and gets in 
between the threads to hold it.  I haven't met one yet that works well covering 
another layer of paint and I have been fabric painting for longer than I care 
to admit.  Even taught it for a while some years back.  Some of the newer 
fabric paints may do the job, but I wouldn't bet on it.  You might try using 
regular acrylic paints as a second coat as they are made to stick to plastic 
and other non-porous surfaces.  Good Luck.

Subject: [h-cost] Fabric Paint

I've been working on a banner for some newly married friends.  I'm using 
Jacquard Textile paints.  I'm not sure what happend but one of the panels that 
I had to wash - after being painted and heatset; the paint bubbled up and 
peeled off.  Well, actually it was the second coat of paint that I had done 
over a lighter color of paint.  The lighter color stayed in place.  I'm going 
to be redoing the whole panel over.   Does anyone have any ideas on what might 
have happened so I don't make the same mistake again?
