Resin spray?

[Guest Airjamie]

Are there any commercially available spray-on resin products? This may be a stupid question, but i am ignorant of the physical properties of the resin used in making jeans.

this is a good question, i too would like to know more about resin and how it is used, and if there are any commercially available types.

call it what you want..

some of the denims i make have resin on it get that cool wrinkle effect, and my laundry sprays resin on with the denim with a bodyform and bakes it in an oven.. i'll ask my laundry if there are consumer resin out there that would have the same effect...

booty clap contest anyone?.......

Hi all,

For the resin, I never found anything available out of pro market. I asked all my supplier from europe but not a single is selling small quantities.

Also, using resin needs some technical knowledge. Dilution is the key, especially if you want to apply to light fabric ( effect is pretty nice also on non denim, especially on corduroy). Resin can completly destroy the yarn if not enough diluted. So, depend on your fabric, you must adjust your dilution.

Finally, oven is also important and if you don't have the right oven, you just going to burn your fabric... Temperature needed is not high ( 140/150°) but the way the hot air is curculation is essential.

anyway, good luck in your research.
