D.I.Y All the Time! Custom Painted Denim Jacket (Testing Three Paint Methods)

Hi everyone, today we are making custom denim jackets. One of my main concerns when approaching this DIY was the durability of the paint after multiple wash cycles. I wanted to be sure my hard work wasn't going to be washed away immediately after one wash. While doing my research, I kept finding different ways to paint a denim jacket - all claiming to be durable to withstand washing. Instead of using one strategy, I thought why not put many to the test and see if they in fact work or not. Today we are going to try three separate paint methods on a denim jacket to see which ones are durable to withstand a wash cycle.

Use acrylic paint. Not acrylic glass paint. Wash in cool water and do not put in the dryer.
